Modern Mental Health Education

Industry Leading Mental Health Education

Symptom Media is a vital resource for students, professionals, and organizations alike, offering an extensive library of video-based content focused on realistic mental health scenarios. For students, it bridges the gap between theory and practice, enhancing learning with visual case studies that prepare students for future careers.

“The combination of visual content and accompanying explanations equips my students with critical clinical skills. They can practice their diagnostic skills in a controlled, educational environment. Through detailed video scenarios, students can observe how different mental health conditions unfold across various contexts, such as in therapy or during interviews, which sharpens their ability to identify key symptoms and distinguish between similar disorders.”

“The simulations are well done.  Symptom Media cases bring the material to life in a way that textbooks simply cannot, giving students an experience that mirrors what they might encounter in a clinical setting. The platform is simple to use, affordable and a resource that enhances the learning process. Thank you for making this impactful tool available on the undergraduate level as well as higher levels. I cannot recommend it highly enough.”
