Introducing Theo: Real-Time Mental Health Support for Teens, Powered by AI

Beacon Media + Marketing Season 1 Episode 90

In this episode of The Beacon Way podcast, host Adrienne Wilkerson sits down with Scott and Brian Seideman to discuss their innovative new app, Theo, which leverages AI to support teens struggling with mental health issues.

Brian, a licensed therapist, shares his extensive background working with a variety of populations, while Scott explains the personal experiences that led to the development of Theo. They dive into the creation process, the urgent need for teen mental health resources, and how Theo provides real-time support between therapy sessions.

You’ll also hear how Theo is being built with HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance, clinician-approved scripts, and guardrails to ensure teens get emotionally safe, appropriate support. Plus, Theo is fully customizable to meet the unique needs of each user.

The app is fully developed and currently in pre-launch mode.
Beta testing begins at the end of September with broader testing through October.
