Abstract

Reintegrating Psychological Innovations to Improve Mental and Psychological Health in Children with Autism
Author(s): Mohammad Nayef Ayasrah* and Mohamad Ahmad Saleem Khasawneh

The great majority of the available treatment choices for mental health problems were restricted to tried-and-true techniques such as psychotherapy and medication. Because of the developments that have been made possible by digital technology, professionals in the field of mental health are now able to design new therapies that are not only more successful but also more easily available to a wider audience. The Ministry of Health has developed an all-new telemedicine platform in order to increase the level of contact that may take place between mental health specialists and their patients, particularly when the patients are situated in remote areas. In addition to this, it has provided financial support for the creation of digital services which aim to increase both awareness and assistance in the fight against the epidemic. The Ministry of Health is the department in charge of the Mental Health Innovation Program in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
