Vessel - AI-Powered Therapy Enhancement Platform
Problem
Traditional therapy sessions often suffer from inefficient use of time, with patients struggling to articulate their feelings and therapists lacking insight into patients' emotional states between sessions. The therapeutic process needed a tool that could enhance self-awareness, improve session preparation, and strengthen the therapist-patient relationship while maintaining the highest standards of privacy and compliance.
