Reply to "Use of asynchronous virtual mental health resources for COVID-19 pandemic–related stress"

I'm sad to see that so few people are accessing these resources! Though to be fair, most of the AVMH I know about are through my work in the mental health and addictions field. I'm not sure if the public at large are as aware about services like Wellness Together Canada and others that they have free access to.

We need to do a better job of promoting these services, since they have the potential to help a lot of people, especially those where less intensive services are sufficient.

The site suggests, you can access a person, live to talk with, seems like a guide/navigator type.  I do think the tech/app approach needs a person to help people dip their toes in, but I will read the research report.

It would be interesting to see the actual intervention approach/profile of what wellness together does, ie" the typical approach, as might help on the trust/confidence level encouraging use.
