Dr. Riya by Mindtalk is an AI mental health guide in the Mindtalk app, available on Android, iOS and the web. It explains screening results such as WHO-5 and PHQ-9 in plain language, then uses assessment results and how someone feels to suggest a guided journey, journal or human specialist as a starting point. It can help users prepare topics for a therapist appointment and keep track of mood, sleep and journal entries between sessions. The wider app lists 99 clinically validated assessments, more than 100 worksheets, 18 guided journeys, 26 journals and over 155 guided audio sessions. Mindtalk presents the app for general wellbeing and self-help related to mild-to-moderate anxiety or low mood, sleep, stress and mental-health habits. Users can book a Mindtalk psychiatrist or clinical psychologist in the app, and may choose to share assessment scores and worksheet responses with a therapist. Mindtalk says account information is encrypted and not shared without explicit permission. The free plan is available across its listed platforms.
