Web therapy

Here's another article on internet therapy, from The Times. I'm increasingly interested by the possibilities for websites to help with mental health, which I don't think have been fully explored.

I'd love to work on a website for young people's mental health, which used the best of the web - videos, MP3 downloads and podcasts, forums (fora?), interviews and chatrooms.

I don't think such a website exists yet, or does it?

Jules,

Have a look at www.bigwhitewall.com

Its a social networking website that aims to bring people with emotional health problems into a social support environment, and gives various forms of expression, such as creating bricks for the wall. Its quite a recent creation but seems to be growing rapidly in popularity...I think its got potential.
