SOCIETY OF DIGITAL PSYCHIATRY WELCOMES YOU
Personal Connections in Digital Mental Health
ABOUT
Connecting People
The Society for Digital Psychiatry was formed in 2021 to serve as a hub for those interested in Digital Psychiatry. As new technologies, clinics, and companies expand, finding the right connections can be challenging. The Society for Digital Psychiatry links, features, and educates members about the exciting and ever-changing innovations in the mental health field. In partnership with the society's official journal, JMIR Mental Health, there is a shared vision to promote and support the best research and clinical innovations.
​
We represent over 200 mental health professionals and advocates from across the world with a common interest in advancing outcomes for people with psychiatric conditions.
​
Based on member surveys, our three main areas of focus this year are:
​
1) Clinical Integration and Workflow
2) Engagement for End Users
3) Evidence and Standards
​
Other areas of interest include billing parity, privacy/safety, the impact of social media, evaluation of digital solutions, and regulatory reform around clinical use of digital tools.
