Kathryn Forbes interviews Sara Levinson, MPH, MSLOC and Dr. Madhukar Trivedi about the importance of self-monitoring and the work to reduce the burdens associated with mental health screening by putting the power in the hands of individuals. Active self-monitoring helps you quickly notice changes in your mental health, so that you can quickly take action. CDRC researchers designed the Evexia self-monitoring website to empower individuals to screen themselves regularly and track changes in their mental wellness over time.

As Senior Project Manager and Head of the CDRC’s Mood Disorders Network (MDN), Sara Levinson works to implement the findings from CDRC research into real world settings. The MDN’s newest project, Evexia, is a tool developed by mental health professionals that empowers youth and adults alike to manage and monitor their mental health from anywhere, at anytime.
