This research lifts Internet-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (iCBT) further by introducing visual analytics dashboard techniques to facilitate iCBT therapists in organising and carrying out their work in a potential more efficient way. Following a design science methodology we developed a web-app and dashboard that processes standardized mental health screening questionnaires and visualizes the result at both individual patient and group levels. The dashboard was evaluated through user testing and semi-structured interviews by two experts (one psychiatrist and one psychologist), who responded with great interest and enthusiasm, and gave suggestions for further development. Finally, scalability issues using HL7 FHIR are addressed.
