SEATTLE, Washington (November 4, 2011) – BalancedMindz Inc announces the official launch of its new mental health website, http://www.balancedmindz.org. The site publishes cutting edge research and information related to the origins of mental illness, its diagnosis and treatment in addition to offering self-help tools, community forums, a therapist directory and more to a global audience in need of online access to mental health resources. Primary disorders covered include depression, anxiety and panic disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, ADHD/ADD, addiction, eating disorders, insomnia, and autism spectrum disorders.
The website offers several disorder specific questionnaires plus a general questionnaire aimed at helping people determine if they have symptoms of a mental health disorder and could benefit from professional help. Dr. Maurine Porto, MD, one of the company’s co-founders, says "The questionnaires are proving to be quite popular, and over 2,500 people have already responded since we launched just a few weeks ago. We see this as a clear indication that people are seeking help online"
