In the depths of my professional journey, I found the drive to create something transformative. My name is Sara, the founder of NEWSELF. With a PhD and a Master's degree in computer science, I have spent over eight years researching and developing methodologies for designing effective mental health applications. The roadblocks I identified during my research inspired me to craft a user-friendly platform that addresses these challenges. NEWSELF is the culmination of my extensive education and research, aiming to revolutionize online therapy and mental health support.

In the second phase of developing NEWSELF, my personal journey and the struggles I faced became the foundation for our vision. This realization ignited the spark for creating a revolutionary mental health application. Our talented designer joined the team, infusing her creativity to bring the product to life. Together, we embarked on extensive user research to understand the needs and pain points of our users. Supported by a dedicated team of therapists and psychologists, we ensured that every design and decision in our therapy application was grounded in user needs and effective therapy Sessions.

Our journey took a significant leap forward in the third phase. Our design team poured their hearts into making the Newself application not only functional but also a comforting and engaging space. The technical team worked tirelessly to ensure a seamless, secure platform, while our business team strategized to make NEWSELF accessible to those who needed it most. Throughout this journey, our team of therapists and psychologists remained our guiding light, ensuring that every feature and decision was rooted in effective therapeutic practices.

In the fourth phase, NEWSELF is ready to launch, but we know the journey has just begun. Building NEWSELF as the mental application for therapy sessions was more than just a project; it was a mission to create a sanctuary for those struggling, much like I once did. The collective effort of our diverse and passionate team has been the backbone of this journey, turning a vision into a transformative reality. As we move forward, we remain committed to making a significant impact on the lives of individuals seeking mental well-being, continuously improving and evolving to meet their needs. Together, we will continue to create a better future for mental health care.
