About this title

Synopsis

In a world of information that tends toward randomness, therapists and clinicians often need guidance regarding how best to use new technologies and yet not allow the chaos of new media to undermine their practice.

Here, a leading provider of online mental health information, Dr. Robert Hsiung, has gathered a group of distinguished contributors to discuss clinical, ethical, and legal issues pertaining to e-therapy. Full of case studies and examples of active programs that deliver mental health information and therapy via new media, E-Therapy offers first-hand accounts of the potential and risks of recent trends in 'distance therapy' and 'telepsychiatry.' Chapters include

Chat Room Therapy: Gary S. Stofle
Using E-mail to Support Outpatient Treatment: Joel Yager
Community Telepsychiatry: Sara F. Gibson
An Online Self-Help Group Hosted by a Mental Health Professional: Robert C Hsiung
