Start Early!Teen Mental Health
At Mindpod, we believe in the importance of proactive mental health support for teens, empowering them to build resilience, foster inner strength and enhance emotional wellbeing to navigate life's challenges, as research shows that early intervention can significantly enhance their emotional well-being and overall development.
The Need
Globally, it's estimated that 1 in 7 (14%) adolescents aged 10-19 experience mental health conditions, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
A 2023 Gallup survey revealed that nearly half (47%) of Gen Zers, aged 12 to 26, frequently or constantly experience anxiety, while over one in five (22%) often or always feel depressed.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower teens to thrive. We are committed to ensuring that every young person has the tools they need to navigate life's challenges and realize their full potential. By prioritizing early intervention and prevention through self-reflection, we aim to create a safe and supportive environment where teens can reflect, grow, and build a positive future.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a world where every teen can reflect and tap into their inner wisdom. We foresee a future where mental health challenges are addressed proactively, empowering young people to build confidence and resilience, ultimately leading to a healthier, more connected, and empowered generation.
