In recent years, unpredictable events such as wars, infectious disease outbreaks, and natural disasters have become commonplace. As a result, everyone is susceptible to mental illness. Especially since 2020, the number of people suffering from mental illness has increased rapidly due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection. In addition, victims of disasters and wars can cause people to suffer from mental illness for a long period of time.
It is believed that if mental disorders are detected early and treated early, treatment can be prolonged and the condition worsened. However, in general, awareness of preventive measures for mental health is lower than for physical health, and appropriate measures are often not taken. Furthermore, in Japan, there is a deep-rooted stigma against mental illness and mental disorders, which can lead to missed opportunities for treatment and delays in prevention.
Therefore, through our online counseling service, we at Cotree would like to realize a “society connected through kindness” and create a situation where everyone can easily prevent and care for mental disorders. “Kindness” is not a finite thing, but something that expands infinitely. Our dream is to create an environment in which everyone can rely on others in any situation and live a healthy life by connecting kindness.
In order to realize this dream, cotree will mainly work on the following three things.
1. Promote the philosophy of mental wellness, which proactively works to prevent and care for mental health.
We embody the philosophy of mental wellness every day through services such as online counseling and workshops to learn cognitive behavioral therapy.
In addition to providing services, we will continue to spread the philosophy of mental wellness through in-house seminars and media communications.
2. Spread correct knowledge about mental health
To date, cotree has given presentations at many seminars and collaborated with services in order to spread the philosophy of mental wellness and spread correct knowledge about mental health.
Most recently, we collaborated with the AI mental health app “Awarefy” and exhibited and spoke at the experiential wellness event “Marunouchi Health Room.” We have also opened “Cotree College” for counselors, providing knowledge and information useful for counselors’ self-improvement.
We will continue to spread correct knowledge about mental health by collaborating with various services that support mental health care, speaking at events, and communicating with the media.
3. Further expand Japan’s largest online counseling service “cotree” Up until now, we have been working to expand online counseling through the corporate service “cotree for Biz” and through demonstration experiments with research institutions, local governments, etc. We will continue to collaborate with various organizations and aim to popularize and expand online counseling throughout society.
Cotree will continue to aim to become an infrastructure for mental health care and create a society connected through kindness. “April Dream” is a project by PR TIMES where companies broadcast their dreams that they would like to achieve someday on April 1st. We are seriously aiming to make this dream come true.
