Problem
Existing video platforms make it hard for remote art therapist to see their client’s facial expression and art progress simultaneously.

Interviewed with professional art therapists and therapists to identify product opportunity.
Before the first stageof dessign, I interviewed several professional art therapists and asked about on their daily challenges during work.
User persona
Early stage prototype testing with the target user for feature improvements.
After building the first prototype for the product, I tested the idea with a professional art therapist to seek improvements on the features and designs.
Design revisions after user testing.
Conclusion + What I’d do Differently
Understand the clients side of perspective. Since we are also designing for art therapy clients as well, interviewing with clients could have given us a bigger picture to the whole online experience.
Reach out to more remote art therapist. We rushed into product ideation after initial user interviews, leading to extensive revisions later. Deeper user research upfront would have saved significant time and effort.
