Problem
Teenagers face rising anxiety, distraction from screens, and academic pressure, yet lack daily mental health practices that fit into their real lives. Traditional support from teachers and counselors is stretched thin, leaving families without accessible tools to help teens build emotional resilience.
Solution
mteen offers live-guided mindfulness programs specifically for teenagers, designed to fit into their existing routines around school, screens, and home. The flagship program, mtRoot, is an eight-week cohort that combines live online sessions with AI-supported practice between sessions. Weekly themes guide teens from understanding their minds to managing stress and building healthier relationships with technology. Between live sessions, "Mitra" practice keeps the learning close, while a private dashboard offers next-step guidance and parent-visible logistics support.
Target Audience
Primary users are teenagers aged 13-19 who need practical mindfulness tools for stress and focus, alongside their parents or guardians who seek structured, supportive mental health resources for their families.
