Namandu: Saúde Mental

Namandu is a mental health psychoeducation platform that puts your emotional well-being at the center. The name comes from Guarani and means "enlightenment of the spirit"—and that's exactly what we offer: clarity, support, and paths to self-knowledge.

🧠 WHAT IS NAMANDU?

Namandu is not therapy and does not replace psychological support. It is a psychoeducation bridge that offers reliable information on mental health, screening tools, and connection with verified professionals.

✅ FEATURES

• Psychoeducation with AI — Converse with our AI-based assistant to obtain educational information on anxiety, depression, stress, and other mental health topics.

• Emotional screening — Complete internationally recognized questionnaires (PHQ-9, GAD-7, WHO-5) to better understand how you are feeling.

• Wellness diary — Record your mood and track its evolution over time.

• Educational content — Access articles, exercises, and self-care techniques selected by professionals.

• Connection with psychologists — Find professionals registered with the CRP (Regional Psychology Council), view profiles, specialties, and schedule appointments.

• Secure chat — Private and encrypted communication with your professional.

• Moderated community — Support groups led by professionals in a secure environment.

• Emergency — Quick access to CVV (188) and other crisis support resources.

• Anonymity by default — Use educational resources without needing to create an account.

🔒 PRIVACY AND ETHICS

Your data is protected with the highest security standards. You can use the app anonymously. We never make clinical diagnoses or replace professional care. In crisis situations, we always refer to specialized services.

👩‍⚕️ FOR MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS

Psychologists and therapists can register, create a complete profile with verified CRP (Brazilian professional registration number), manage their appointments, and track patient progress through dedicated tools.

🌱 OUR MISSION

To democratize access to mental health information with responsibility, privacy, and ethics. We believe that everyone deserves access to reliable guidance and qualified professionals—regardless of where they are.
