A free app for Android, by The National Institute for Health Innovation.
It has been developed to help young people who have depression and are feeling anxious or stressed.
SPARX is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which is a type of therapy that helps people to learn how to think and feel in a more positive way. CBT helps them to identify and change negative thoughts and feelings, and get them to do things that they enjoy or that give them a sense of achievement.
If you are a young person aged between 13 and 19 years old and based in New Zealand, you can download SPARX on your Android device and use it to do cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
