Leveraging Digital Mental Health Solutions to Support Perinatal Well-being

1. What Is Digital Mental Health?
Explain that this includes AI-powered therapy apps, telehealth platforms, and web-based mental health services designed for accessibility, privacy, and real-time support. Mention how these methods can supplement traditional screening and outreach.
2. Market Trends & Growth Projections
The global digital mental health market is projected to grow from roughly USD 27.8 B in 2024 to around USD 152 B by 2034, with a strong CAGR of ~18.5%
In the U.S., the digital mental health market is expected to grow from about USD 8.3 B in 2024 to USD 54 B by 2035, reflecting widespread adoption of teletherapy and wellness apps .
Highlight the relevance for India and similar regions where smartphone use and remote access are growing, enabling more new mothers to benefit from digital support.
3. How Digital Solutions Benefit Maternal Mental Health
Remote Screening & Peer Support: Apps and platforms allow perinatal individuals to complete validated screening tools for depression or anxiety from home, reducing stigma and enabling early identification.
Telehealth Counseling: Connect mothers to therapists or peer counselors virtually—critical where postpartum screening rates remain under 20% and access is limited
AI‑based Tools: Chatbots or digital assistants can offer 24/7 support, mood tracking, coping strategies, and referral information—especially useful during MMH Awareness Week or ongoing community engagement campaigns.
Scalable Education: Digital platforms offer videos, webinars, or interactive modules on perinatal mental health topics—aligned with MMHOrganisation’s existing fact sheets and resource toolkit.
