Research studies
A meta-review of mental health apps showed that apps for anxiety and depression can be effective as stand-alone interventions and in addition to therapy-based interventions
(Lecomte et al., 2020; Chandrashekar, P. (2018).
Apps can provide accessible skills training and practice through CBT-based apps
(East & Havard, 2015).
Recent studies have also demonstrated that mental health programs for individual employees can be successfully delivered via web-based and smartphone apps offering a more accessible and affordable option for employers
(Deady et al., 2017; Stratton et al., 2017).
