WHJ Online Therapy Centre - Know Your Story

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Who can register?
   Anybody can register. WHJ ONLINE is a virtual centre that has something for everyone. You can register to start a mood/mental health journal, seek free therapy, buy toolkits and therapy sessions or publish an article to raise mental health awareness.
2. What is a mood/mental health journal and how does it help?
   A mood/mental health journal helps to keep a record of your mental health transitions. You can use it to record your physical transitions or life trajectory as well. It is similar to keeping a diary which you aren’t afraid to disclose. Journaling has many mental health benefits like slowing down your brain, pronouncing your needs and thoughts, getting to know yourself better or exploring your stream of consciousness. You can get in touch with us and have an expert take a look at it from a professional perspective.
3. Can I publish an article at WHJ Online?
   You can send in an article you would like to publish for review. Once a peer reviewer proofreads it, an editor will get in touch with you. You can add your published articles to your CV/portfolio, share it on social media or use it to start an academic discussion.
4. What is the World Health Journey?
   The World Health Journey is an initiative for people to not entirely rely on their therapists but also not hesitate to receive therapy whenever required. We will connect you to a therapist depending on your needs. The aim is to make sure you improve your wellbeing and heal. Imagine riding a bicycle. You need support in the beginning but learn to ride on your own. We support your therapeutic journey.
