Our Digital Psychiatry Clinic uses technology to support cognitive behavioral therapy. Through the mindLAMP app, we provide accessible and effective treatment.
This treatment combines virtual therapy visits with a skill reinforcement app to use in between sessions. Designed at BIDMC, the mindLAMP app teaches you about how your environment, behaviors, emotions and thoughts impact your symptoms. We work collaboratively with you to personalize the focus of treatment based on insights gained by digital data. Skills learned during therapy sessions are then reinforced at home through app-based exercises.
