Fam Syst Health. 2021 Mar;39(1):155-157. doi: 10.1037/fsh0000587.

Abstract

Providers need an efficient, unbiased, and reliable resource to determine which apps may be most helpful. OneMindPsyberguide (one mindpsyberguide.org) is a third-party app rating platform that offers an important service to providers and patients. Compared with other app review platforms (e.g., American Psychological Association and Anxiety and Depression Association of America app ratings, Enlight, MARS, mHAD, Mind Tools, and ORCHA), Psyberguide is com prehensive and relatively user friendly. To expand our review of Psyberguide, we asked practicing therapists to give us their per spectives on its utility. Our convenience sam ple for feedback included seven behavioral health care providers (BHPs) working in a busy university primary care department. After a few weeks, we requested anonymous feedback from the providers. Most of the BHPs said they found Psyberguide helpful in their prac tice.
