The escalating adolescent mental health crisis has been met with a new array of options for direct youth access to mental health care online via apps, virtual visits with health professionals, and other digital therapies.
What do youth think about these resources and how do they engage with them? How can youth, parents, and caregivers identify apps that are effective and appropriate?
