Our Story
Our founders first recognised the incredible potential of digital health treatments in 2011 when they connected their backgrounds in web development with efforts to improve their own mental health.
Wellmind Health has pioneered Digital Treatments as a Service (DTaaS) with our proprietary cloud-based DTaaS Platform, which is designed exclusively for scalable development, deployment and delivery of digital treatments.
We take great pride in the outstanding user feedback our programs generate and the regulatory compliance accreditations they receive. Our drug-free digital treatments are class 1 medical devices and maintain the highest standards for clinical safety, data protection, technical security, interoperability, usability and accessibility.
Many millions of people experience mental health issues each year and suffer from chronic pain on a daily basis. Depression, stress, anxiety and chronic pain take their toll. They have a deep impact on individual lives, careers and futures, affect partners and family members, and require significant levels of care and support from health services. Whether accessed via clinicians, employers or by individuals themselves, our digital treatments are here to help people take control and lead a better quality of life.
The Platform
Our highly specialised proprietary and cloud-based platform is unique. Designed exclusively for the scalable development, deployment and delivery of digital treatments and the reporting of their effectiveness with a new level of high-quality real-time clinical data.
The platform's user-friendly secure web-based Management Portal delivers best-in-class functionality and world-leading clinical data. It enables clinicians and therapists to manage program participants, monitor engagement and satisfaction in real time, and report on their self-assessed health outcomes using a variety of clinical outcome measurements at granular and aggregated levels.
Security, SAFETY AND INTEROPERABILITY
The Wellmind Platform complies with the regulatory standards for Class 1 medical device deployment in health and social care settings.
It offers a fully featured, extensible API, with role-based permissions that enable integration with healthcare systems. It's security-focused, cloud-based architecture adheres to strict security, compliance, and risk management controls.

HEAD OF COMMUNICATIONS
"The figures are at par with any of the pain management programmes running, or slightly better."
"Pathway through Pain is what I call 'a strong tool', one that we can trust. Our clinicians, technology and projects team have all been involved in its onboarding, so we are very clear about its value. We're really pleased to have it available now as an integral component of our pain service."
"We've provided staff with a whole range of mental health support resources, including Be Mindful. One of the driving forces at the start was the flexibility of the Be Mindful programme, allowing people to self-manage, and do it when it fits them best."
"Research on the impact of mindfulness on craving and trigger management has increased. Be Mindful is a vital element of our complementary CBT, mindfulness and wellness CTAC programme. It's proven efficacy, educational elements, and on-demand mobile nature are of huge value in supporting our clients."
"I've found the uptake of Be Mindful to be excellent. The provider is extremely efficient & accommodating. The platform allows me to see participant progress & engagement with simple reporting, saves me time & demonstrates impact to commissioners. Most importantly, practitioners find it a useful tool to move people closer to work by helping them better manage their mental health"
“We know that employee stress and anxiety can come from any angle – at both work and home – but we also know that talking therapies are not suited to everyone. Making Be Mindful available to all our staff has provided a highly effective, self-help solution they can access anonymously and in their own time.”
“Pathway through Pain is now integral to our pain service. It improves the quality of life of the patients we serve - and its improved my quality of life no end; I don’t tell patient after patient the same thing time and again in my clinic - the course does it for me!“
"One clear reason for opting for Be Mindful is that it had evidently been tried and tested and had received medical validation. It's also very easy to measure the impact and report results into our corporate health and safety group."
"Having Pathway through Pain to access enabled us to move to a fully digital pathway."
“What's amazing for me is that once people have learned these Mindfulness techniques, they keep using them. Receiving so many stories of participants’ lived experience is also really important. It's not just about statistical measurements, it's actually making a significant difference to someone’s life.”
“The Wellmind Health team is very responsive if we have any queries and is supportive of our needs. They recently helped at short notice to make amends to wording on promotional materials ahead of a promotional event, which was extremely successful thanks to their input.”
"The online service quickly became an important part of the pain management programme, sometimes as a stand alone intervention and sometimes alongside other courses of treatment."
"The figures are at par with any of the pain management programmes running, or slightly better. The advantage of this kind of technology is that you don't have to see the patient every week - there is simply less of a requirement for direct patient contact. While closely monitored by their clinician, patients are empowered to learn and self-manage."
