Abstract:
Digital mental health tools-including telehealth, mobile applications, wearable devices, machine learning, and artificial intelligence-are changing the way patients and providers manage mental health care. This review summarizes the current research findings of digital interventions on patient access to care, the factors impacting personalized care, and overall patient engagement. Gaps of knowledge and future considerations are discussed, including careful observation of existing barriers to care. Clinical recommendations are discussed for clinicians who are considering implementing digital mental health tools into practice.
