Mental health has become an ever-growing problem in the modern world but a stigma and lack of knowledge continue to prevent people from seeking help. With the evolution of digital technology, web-based applications that use chatbot have become a promising tool to increase mental health awareness and encourage self-evaluation. The present research is aimed at designing and testing a chatbot-enabled web-based application that could be used to engage users, providing educational resources, and guiding the users in completing self-assessment questionnaires such as PHQ-9 and GAD-7. The chatbot enables the user to interact in an environment that is supportive and where they can express their concerns and receive personalized advice.
