Stepping Stones mental health app
Stepping Stone is a mental wellbeing app concept created for an ethical design module, focused on supporting individuals experiencing long waiting times for mental health services. The project explores how digital design can provide reassurance and emotional support through accessible and user friendly interactions.
The app was designed to try to encourage positive daily habits through features such as mood tracking, guided activities, calming media and a kind of personal journaling. I wanted to use a soft colour palette and simple navigation to make it more approachable where visual language were used to create a calm and welcoming experience for users who may feel overwhelmed or anxious.
This project combined UX/UI design and a bit of branding to demonstrate how thoughtful digital design can be used to address real world social issues in an empathetic and meaningful way.
