About this app

Mello is a FREE mental health app designed specifically for young Australians by researchers at Orygen Digital within the University of Melbourne.

For young people struggling with anxiety and depression, Mello is an evidence-based app designed specifically to support the mental health of young minds. Made for real-life, Mello offers practical tools to help you get out of your head & on with your day—anytime, anywhere.
HOW MELLO WORKS
Mello works by helping you to tackle the root cause of anxiety and depression — stuck thinking. Whether you’re worried about a looming deadline, stewing over an argument with a friend, or just having one of those off days, Mello is your guide to breaking free the endless loop of negative thinking.

Based on practical, science-backed techniques like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mello has been developed by psychologists and researchers alongside young people to offer effective clinical solutions that work.

Mello helps you develop the skills required to proactively manage your mental health by suggesting the most effective evidence-based activities to offer you in-the-moment relief from stuck thinking. Through regular check-ins, therapy exercises and short-courses, you'll begin to develop an understanding of your mental health patterns and how to make beneficial long-term changes.

Features on the Mello app:
— Get unstuck and relieve your busy or burdened mind
— Receive tailored therapy activity recommendations
— Relieve your mind by venting your thoughts
— Access a range of evidence-based therapy activities
— Build skills and practice through short courses
— Track your mood through regular prompted check-ins
— Learn to identify patterns of stuck thinking with insights
— Links to emergency supports

By using Mello, you can:
— Break negative thinking spirals
— Reduce feelings of depression and anxiety
— Better understand your mind
— Gain control over your stuck thinking

BACKED BY SCIENCE, BUILT FOR LIFE
Built by psychologists and leading mental health researchers, every part of Mello is grounded in science and backed by young people and mental health professionals. Our mission at Orygen Digital is to ensure all young people have access to reliable and clinically effective mental health treatments.

In a recent study by Orygen Digital and the University of Melbourne, young people with clinical levels of depression and/or anxiety had access to the Mello app over six weeks. The study found that:

— 82% of Mello users experienced less anxiety
— 79% of Mello users were less depressed
— 83% of Mello users had less stuck thinking

After having access to Mello for six weeks:
— 1 in 3 young people no longer had clinically significant depression
— 1 in 4 young people no longer had clinically significant anxiety

BUILT FOR PEOPLE, NOT FOR PROFIT
Mello is backed and delivered by Orygen Digital, a world-leading research organisation and not-for-profit within the University of Melbourne that is dedicated to improving the lives of young people by making mental health support accessible for all.
