Voice AI for Mental Health

About hpy

hpy is committed to revolutionizing mental health care by integrating empathic AI into therapeutic practice. By harnessing Hume’s advanced technologies, hpy enables therapists to deliver more personalized and effective care while preserving the essential human connection that underpins successful therapy.

At its core, hpy envisions a future where everyone has a personal well-being agent in their pocket—one that’s truly aligned with their emotional health and happiness, fostering genuine connections in a world where technology often extracts rather than enriches.

Implementing Hume’s Technology

hpy uses Hume’s Expression Measurement API and Empathic Voice Interface (EVI) to address two critical needs:

1. Real-Time Session Enhancement: Hume's Expression Measurement API captures and analyzes client emotional expressions during therapy sessions, providing therapists immediate insights into emotional patterns and triggers.
2. Between-Session Support: Hume's Empathic Voice Interface (EVI) offers clients therapy-informed presence between appointments through guided sessions targeting specific goals, open conversations tailored to current needs, and structured therapeutic tasks.

Results

By integrating with Hume, hpy has been able to achieve improvements to their care delivery:

• Enhanced therapeutic engagement with Hume’s Expression Measurement API and EVI, which capture real-time emotional insights during therapy sessions.

• 40% reduction in administrative work through automated documentation and emotional expression tracking, so therapists can devote more time to client care.

• 70% of clients commit to therapeutic tasks and 45% successfully complete them, far surpassing traditional homework adherence rates.

Therapist Feedback:

Using hpy has been a game-changer in my practice! It's significantly reduced the time I spend on note-taking, allowing me to focus more on the heart of my work with clients. The insights and prompts help me deepen my understanding of what might be happening in therapy sessions.

Within just three weeks of using the tool, I had forgotten how to take manual notes. The system's ability to understand not just what is being said, but how it is being said, handles the emotional labor of documentation.

Future Developments

hpy plans to further integrate Hume’s technology, always guided by their core principle: using AI to enhance human connection, not replace it.

As hpy's CEO explains,

We're excited to roll out personalized goal-setting features and treatment modality-specific tasks, like DBT and CBT. These developments will make therapeutic actions increasingly tailored to individual client needs, further enhancing the personalized care experience we provide.

By leveraging both Hume's Expression Measurement API and EVI, hpy is pioneering a new era in mental health care where AI doesn't stand between therapist and client but rather creates more opportunities for deeper human connection.
