People often ask us...
People often want to know how the ieso programme app works and what is involved. Here’s some of the questions we are often asked:
Who is ieso?
Named ieso after the Goddess of Recuperation, we are a healthcare company passionate about using technology to create a world where everyone has access to effective and timely mental healthcare. We have provided over 135,000 UK patients with 1:1 CBT and built a unique mental health dataset that powers our efforts to improve mental health. We are expert clinicians, scientists, and digital technologists working together to create effective and highly personalized digital mental health products.
What is the ieso program?
This is a guided wellbeing program that you can access on your smartphone and with an internet connection. Created by our highly experienced clinicians and behavioral scientists, it has been designed to help you develop skills to better manage feelings of worry and stress. The program is delivered in six modules, each containing up to five, 10-20 minute interactions. During each session you will be guided by a digital agent through videos, educational content, interactive worksheets and more – all designed to help you understand and manage your stress, anxiety, and worry.
How do I talk to a digital guide?
We recommend responding to the questions the digital guide is asking with as much detail as you feel comfortable sharing so you can get the maximum benefits from the program. Remember that the digital guide is designed to lead you through mental health concepts and exercises written by trained therapists. The guide does not have the capability to answer questions outside its designed function. If you get off track, the guide will nudge you back to the purpose of the session.
How long are sessions and what will I need to prepare?
Each week you will be invited to attend up to five sessions, each lasting around 20 minutes. To make the most out of each session, we recommend setting yourself up somewhere where you will be comfortable and able to concentrate with minimal distractions. You will also require an internet connection. When you complete your sessions and tasks is entirely up to you.
What do sessions involve?
The sessions will involve you typing answers to questions relating to how you are experiencing worry and stress. You will watch, listen to, and read expert content that relates to your answers and helps you develop new skills. You will also be invited to complete between session tasks that give you the opportunity to practice these skills and apply them in your everyday life. Practicing these skills has been proven to help people better manage worry and stress and live well.
