Overview

User Problem

Associates struggled to find mental-health and wellness resources across multiple portals, hotlines, and PDFs, often giving up before accessing the help they needed.

Business Problem

Low utilization of existing benefits meant the organization was paying for services that employees could not easily discover or trust, while burnout and turnover risks remained high.

Success Metrics
  • Increase engagement with mental-health and wellness benefits.

  • Reduce time to find relevant care options.

  • Improve associates’ confidence that the company supports their wellbeing.

Research

Overview

I partnered with HR, benefits, and clinical vendors to map the end-to-end journey of seeking care—from first signs of stress to booking an appointment and ongoing follow-up.

Key Findings
  • Employees did not know which benefit applied to which life situation (stress, grief, finances, family).

  • Stigma and privacy concerns made people hesitant to use company-branded resources.

  • The language and navigation of existing tools felt clinical, not human, which discouraged first-time use.

Design

Wireframe

I created low-fidelity flows for a single, conversational hub that asked plain-language questions about how someone was feeling and what they needed, then mapped responses to the right services behind the scenes.

User Testing

Moderated sessions with associates across roles and regions helped refine question wording, tone, and recommendations. We iterated on how to show urgency guidance (self-help vs. talk to someone now vs. emergency) without overwhelming or alarming users.

Hi-Fidelity

The final design introduced an AI-guided experience with simple card-based recommendations, anonymous entry points, and clear next steps like “Talk to a counselor,” “Explore self-guided tools,” or “Get financial support.” Visual design intentionally felt calm, inclusive, and non-clinical.

Results

This project exceeded business goals for adoption, rising from a targeted 18% to above 30%. Also, achieving strong user satisfaction shows a real impact for higher retention and cost savings. We proved the trust-building design approach worked, and the platform is now a flagship employee benefit mentioned in recruitment materials.

Key Results & Metrics

Increased monthly engagement with wellness resources as more associates used the hub as their starting point.

Reduced time-to-discovery for relevant benefits by consolidating entry points into one guided experience.

Qualitative feedback highlighted that the experience “felt safe, private, and easy to understand,” especially for first-time seekers of mental-health support.
