Clinical Wellness Companion

92%

user satisfaction

A digital mental wellness provider designed an AI-assisted product around clinical safeguards and clear escalation boundaries.

The Challenge

Understanding the problem

The team needed support features that felt practical without replacing professional care or creating unsafe user expectations.

Our Approach

Finding the path forward

We co-designed flows with therapists and users in active treatment, then added explicit risk boundaries and review checkpoints before release.

I was skeptical about AI features in mental wellness. They agreed to an ethics review gate before release, and that changed how we evaluated risk.

The Solution

Bringing it all together

The shipped product prioritizes reflective prompts, guided exercises, and escalation cues over prescriptive advice. Every high-risk flow passed an ethics review protocol we defined with the clinical advisory team.
