Market Growth Factors
Turkey's mental health market is driven by digital transformation in mental healthcare. Digital mental healthcare and telehealth (e.g., telepsychiatry) have rapidly been adopted in the country, with a particular increase in mobile mental health applications due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which provides access to mental healthcare for remote and underserved areas. AI-based mental health software can conduct preliminary assessment, track mood, and tailor the intervention accordingly. As of early 2025, there are 77.3 million internet users and an internet penetration rate of 88.3%, with digital skills and smartphone ownership among the youth increasing, the country has seen a rise in digital services.
Growth can also be attributed to growing awareness of mental health problems among youth. In 2024, Turkey had the second highest rate of mental health problems, after the US, of 16 countries surveyed. According to the media, efforts by both the public and private sector are underway to increase awareness of mental illness within schools and universities to reduce stigma and promote early intervention. Counselling services and peer support programs on campus have been increased, and mental health professionals are receiving culturally appropriate training.
The market has expanded with the integration of mental health services with primary healthcare services to improve access to mental health services and early intervention. Family physicians and general practitioners are permitted to provide an initial assessment of the mental health condition and some basic counseling for mild to moderate conditions, without referral to specialists, under government initiatives. In addition to reducing stigma, this model trains health staff to provide active patient care, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas that have no psychiatric staff. National health insurance reforms also support family doctors' consultations for mental health in primary health care, thereby making it more affordable and chronic illness care more effective.
