About the program

Who is ieso?

We are a healthcare company passionate about using technology to create a world where everyone has access to effective and timely mental healthcare. We have treated over 110,000 patients online and built the world’s largest scientific library of data about mental health that has been collected. We are expert clinicians, scientists, and digital technologists working together to create effective and highly personalized digital mental health products.

For more information, please visit www.iesogroup.com/

What is the program?

This is a 6-week program that you can access on your smartphone and with internet connection. Created by our world-leading clinicians and behavioural scientists, it has been designed to help you develop skills to better manage symptoms of worry and anxiety. The program is delivered in weekly modules, each containing up to 3 sessions taking around 20 minutes to complete. During a session you will be guided by a digital agent through videos, educational content, interactive worksheets and more – all designed to help you understand and manage your symptoms.

How long are sessions and what will I need to prepare?

Each week you will be invited to join up to 3 sessions, each lasting around 20 minutes. To make the most out of each session, we recommend setting yourself up somewhere where you will be comfortable and able to concentrate with minimal distractions. You will also require internet connection. When you complete your sessions and tasks is entirely up to you. The program is available 24/7, including weekends, evenings, and holidays.

What do sessions involve?

The sessions will involve you typing answers to questions relating to how you are experiencing worry and anxiety symptoms. You will watch, listen to, and read expert content that relates to your answers and helps you develop new skills. You will also be invited to complete in-between session tasks that give you the opportunity to practice these skills and try to apply them in your everyday life. Practicing these skills has been proven to help people better manage symptoms of worry and anxiety and live well.

When can I start a new session?

Each new session will be made available after you have completed the previous session and had some time to reflect. When the next session is ready, it will be visible on the ‘today’ screen of the app and titled the session number e.g., “Session 1”. This way you can see how many you have completed, and you can always find your completed transcripts and videos in the ‘Journal’ section.  

How do I view my transcripts?

You will be able to view the transcripts of your sessions, rewatch videos, and revisit your journal during the program and after your guided sessions have finished.

What happens if I don't complete a session within 24 hours of starting it?

If you don’t complete a session within 24 hours of starting it, the session will begin from the start again the next time you log in. This is because it’s important to keep the conversation flowing and fresh in your mind, just like being in a session with a human therapist. We believe that completing each session in one go where possible, or at least within 24 hours, helps people to get the maximum benefit.

What happens if I do not understand what the program is asking me, or it does not understand my typed replies?

If you do not understand what you are being asked, just type “I don’t understand” into the next open text box. Our Digital Guide will then ask the question in a different way. If it does not understand your reply, our Digital Guide will ask you to type it again in a different way. It is built in such a way that it is always learning.

What will this program cost me?

This program will not cost you anything.

Am I able to give this app to my family members to use?

If your family members have the same health benefits as you, they may be eligible to use the program.  Please have them contact the program sponsor to obtain their own access code.

Can I still use the program if I don’t have internet?

The program requires internet access. If you are struggling to gain regular access to internet/Wi-Fi, then this program may not be best suited to your needs.

I lost internet halfway through the session, will I have to start it again?  

If you lose internet access but can regain it and resume the session within 24 hours, you will be able to continue where you left off. If you are unable to regain access within 24 hours, the session will begin at the start again the next time you log on. Our research shows that completing each session in one go where possible, or at least within 24 hours, helps people to get the maximum benefit.
