BackgroundNoling Planner addresses the growing need for mental health management in everyday life by providing a one-stop digital platform offering symptom-based mental health resources, preventive self-care education, and personalized treatment recommendations.
IntroductionBusy urban lifestyles increase mental health risks, yet access to timely, personalized mental health care remains limited. Users struggle with navigating complex resources, leading to delayed or ineffective care.
Our target users include young professionals, students, and individuals experiencing early mental health symptoms who need accessible self-care resources, structured support, and timely interventions tailored to their unique situations.
Noling Planner is a mobile application providing personalized mental wellness management through symptom-based self-care planners, educational resources, and structured therapeutic programs. It’s designed to simplify mental health management by combining education, prevention, and intervention.
Research & Discovery – First Concept: Art Therapy Platform
We began with an art therapy–based healing platform focused on self-expression and community, but early research and testing revealed limited differentiation—leading us to pivot toward a more scalable, clinically grounded solution.
Let’s take a look at the original UX/UI design before the pivot—a platform focused on art therapy, featuring a user space for creative expression and a dashboard for therapists to monitor and support progress.

Pivot & Redefinition – Final Concept: Noling PlannerWe shifted focus to a self-guided mental care planner built on prevention and clinically backed routines—validating user demand and curating 260+ activities across physical, emotional, social, and spiritual wellness with expert input.
This approach provided a more scalable, accessible alternative—empowering users to manage their mental health without relying on real-time clinical support.
Ideation & UX Strategy
We designed a structured user flow from self-assessment to personalized care, built a symptom-based IA for easy navigation, and added data visualizations to help users track and build balanced self-care routines.
Rapid Prototyping & ValidationWe created interactive prototypes in Figma and ProtoPie, then refined them through usability testing with healthcare professionals and clinical users to ensure real-world relevance and ease of use.
Implementation & Product LaunchWe finalized a calming, intuitive UI to ease cognitive load, and closely managed development to ensure a smooth launch across mobile platforms.
