Mental health has become a serious healthcare issue in this highly stressed society. Many people especially youngsters nowadays suffer mental health problems. Having mental health problems does not necessary mean someone is insane. Mental health problems can also refer to emotional disorders or the disability to enjoy life and procure a balance between daily activities and efforts to achieve psychological stability. There are various causes of mental health breakdown such as family background, stressful life, etc. Mental health problems can lead to school failure, loss of friends, family conflict, etc. To overcome mental health problems, the best way is to see a psychologist and get his or her consultation. However, many people who actually suffer mental health disorders dare not step forward to get consultation from psychologists. They feel weird to see psychologists and of course the high consultation fee is another concern. To help people who are possibly suffering from mental health problems but are reluctant to consult experts, two experienced psychologists from Netherlands, Drs. Jaap Hollander and Drs. Jeffrey Wijnberg, have created a robot psychologist called Mind Mentor which can guide the patients through a series of psychological steps to help them to solve problems and achieve goals.
