Help us validate digital psychometrics and more, using real therapy conversations

Feelpath is building a researcher-friendly platform to advance mental health care: a secure, working telehealth environment where session language can become carefully validated measures, visuals, and clinician- and client-usable tools.

Built for PIs, labs, clinics, and individual collaborators running validation and outcomes studies.

A note from the founder

I'm optimistic about technology and the benefits it can bring, as long as it's used in a responsible and careful way. This is why I built Feelpath with two commitments that I take personally: protecting privacy, and supporting real mental health research.

My goal is to make Feelpath the premier research platform for mental health, supporting exceptional researchers in advancing our field.

However, I'm also a user of these kinds of tools. I know how vulnerable therapy can be, and how important it is to feel safe, private, and protected. That's why I'm committed to building Feelpath as a trustworthy system with clear consent, careful data handling, and strong accountability.

I believe mental health only improves when we learn from real data, responsibly. My aim is to make Feelpath a platform researchers can rely on to run high‑integrity studies that translate into better patient outcomes and better care.

Study concepts designed to be publishable and realistic

Quick early wins → stronger evidence later. Each concept below is framed around measures, endpoints, and concrete outputs you can use in papers, posters, and clinical workflow studies.

Concepts

3 options

Why this is a good starting point

The best early studies are the ones that are easy to run, easy to write up, and honest about limits. This menu is designed to generate publishable artifacts without over-claiming clinical impact.

Collaboration model

What we provide

You bring the study design and hypotheses. We provide a working platform and careful data handling. For research exports and study workflows, we’ll propose a clear plan with you (US-only for now).

  • Today: a working platform with consent-first session capture and HIPAA-focused controls
  • Proposal: research exports (CSV/JSON) designed around your study aims
  • Proposal: de-identified datasets designed for research use
  • Proposal: a clear field list (“data dictionary”) so analysis is straightforward

Example outputs (proposal)

Measurement files

CSV exports, scoring definitions, and a clear codebook so cohorts stay consistent over time.

Figures for papers

Longitudinal plots, facet profiles, and excerpt-backed summaries that translate into methods sections.

Clinical artifacts

Clinician-facing views and client-ready psychoeducation that can be studied as interventions.

Privacy & compliance

Privacy, confidentiality, and HIPAA, clearly explained

US-only for now. Below is the high-level overview; the longer guide goes deeper.

BAAs with core vendors

We have BAAs in place with the vendors we use to run Feelpath (including Zoom, AWS, Kinde, and OpenAI).

Consent at session start

Participants choose what to save and what to share at the start of a session (based on the options in the join flow).

Audit logging

We maintain HIPAA-compliant audit logging to support accountability and review.

If you’re working in digital mental health, affective science, or psychotherapy process and outcome research, we’d love to compare notes and co-design a study that fits your lab.
