cybertherapy
(redirected from e-therapy)

    0.01 sec.
cybertherapy
Providing therapeutic counseling for emotional issues via the Web. Also called "Internet therapy," "e-therapy" and "online counseling," true cybertherapy is provided by credentialed mental health professionals, including psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists and social workers. It is not considered a complete substitute for face-to-face sessions; however, it provides immediate assistance where help is not close by or when in-person visits are not possible. The delivery methods are interactive text chat, e-mail, video calling and voice over IP (VoIP). For a list of cybertherapy sites, visit www.metanoia.org.
