"Due to a global lack of access to therapy and counselling, 70 per cent of people with mental health issues do not receive the help and care they require. The need for support increased rapidly during the pandemic, which reflected in the high demand for the services and tools that our MindTales application offers," said Aksionova, CEO, MindTales, UAE.
"Mental health and wellbeing play such an important role in someone's health. It is and remains a global issue but is especially prominent in the Mena region. With the help of technology, we can overcome this, and we have created a much-needed full stack solution through MindTales." Al Mosa said.
