About

The problem it solves The Problem It Solves Mental health therapy is a deeply personal process, but many people avoid seeking help due to fear of stigma, privacy concerns, or the discomfort of sharing sensitive personal details with strangers. Traditional therapy platforms often require real-world identity verification, store personal data, and involve payment methods that link sessions directly to a user’s identity. This creates barriers, especially in communities where discussing mental health is taboo. Our platform solves this by leveraging Sui blockchain’s zkLogin and Kiosk system to enable truly anonymous therapy sessions. Users can sign up, book, and pay for therapy without revealing their name, email, or credit card information—only cryptographic proofs and session NFTs are involved. This anonymity doesn’t just protect the client—it also safeguards therapists who may want to offer their services without public exposure, such as professionals in restrictive regions or those supporting sensitive topics. By tokenizing therapy sessions as soulbound NFTs stored in a personal Kiosk, we enable: Anonymous booking & payment – No sensitive payment records or platform-stored personal info. Verified but private therapist profiles – Credentials can be proven without revealing real-world identity. Secure, immutable proof of sessions – Session ownership exists on-chain without revealing who the owner is. In short, the platform lowers the psychological and social barriers to accessing mental health support, while creating a trustless, privacy-first marketplace for therapy.
