For all mental health professionals

Every moment matters.
Hemera helps you keep what counts.

Because understanding a patient also means understanding their everyday life.

Hemera turns everyday experiences into useful insights for therapeutic care. Built on a recognized scientific method adapted for clinical practice, short questionnaires help patients better understand what they live through — and help professionals prepare more contextualized, relevant consultations.

The situation

Mental health in Switzerland, under pressure

18%

of Swiss adults experienced psychological distress in 2024 (up from 15% in 2017)

10%

of adults in Switzerland seek care each year

Clinicians under strain

Heavy caseloads, growing waiting lists, and consultations increasingly constrained by time.

"Hemera's goal is to make innovative scientific methods accessible to professionals and patients."

The current problem

Three gaps Hemera closes

01

Recall bias distorts how lived experience is reported

Over time, some experiences are forgotten, simplified, or reconstructed — which can distort how lived experience is recounted and strip away part of its context.

02

The gap between research and practice

Scientific research develops innovative methods to better understand human experience, but these remain difficult to access in everyday clinical work.

03

Existing tools miss the mark

Too complex, too diagnostic, or too heavy for easy day-to-day clinical use.

The solution

Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) in service of therapeutic care

Patient

Close to everyday life

Short, personalized questionnaires offered at defined moments throughout the day.

  • 10 days of follow-up
  • Tailored questionnaires
  • Better understanding of one's experience

Psychologist

What matters, at a glance

A dashboard that highlights trends, potential triggers, and coping strategies.

  • Insights tailored to follow-up
  • Session-ready summaries
  • A simple tool designed to save time

Scientific innovation in service of care that is more personalized, fluid, and informed.

The process

How it works

01

On the patient side

Through a mobile app, an in-depth initial assessment identifies clinically relevant dimensions, then short personalized check-ins document lived experience over 10 days — in a few minutes, close to the moment.

On the professional side

Responses are organized in a synthetic dashboard presenting the trends, changes, contexts, resources, and coping strategies reported by the patient.

Together

Together, the patient's self-observation and a clinical view close to lived experience foster shared understanding, strengthen the therapeutic alliance, and support the work in session.

For your practice

What Hemera brings to your practice

A therapeutic bond that continues between sessions

Care no longer stops at the end of the consultation. Hemera helps your patients feel supported day to day, reducing isolation and strengthening engagement in the therapeutic process.

A clearer sense of self, day after day

Through intelligent questionnaires, your patients learn to recognize their emotions, triggers, and resources.

A stronger therapeutic alliance

Arrive in session with a clear picture of what your patient has lived since your last appointment. The data gathered makes exchanges easier and helps you quickly identify what matters most.

Personalized follow-up

Hemera automatically adapts questionnaires to each patient's needs, highlights trends in charts, and generates clear summaries to save you time.

All without adding to your workload — in a secure environment that protects your patients' confidentiality.
