About PsychX

PsychX seeks to ensure access, awareness, and cost-effectiveness of mental health services. In the fullness of time, We intend to ensure the delivery of mental health services as a primary healthcare need across Africa. Further, by providing patient-centered care services, Our solutions will establish a strong backing for mental health services which in the long run would significantly reduce the stigma which currently exists while accessing such services. From the target population, 15 to 24 years based on our research findings, 75% of Mental Health conditions onset in this age group. The solution, therefore, makes available a platform to access qualified and approachable mental health experts by our target population are informed by an understanding that a mismatch between a professional and client potentially leads to high relapse rates and unresolved mental health conditions. Our pooled data from research notes that suicide is considered to be the 2nd leading cause of death in the target age group; this makes our solution timely for the need at hand.
