Summary

The number of psychologists using telepsychology have increased dramatically in the past five years. The benefits are well know, but what about the challenges? These may not be as obvious, but can cause problems if overlooked. This panel discussion will feature psychologists from various practice areas discussing their experiences with telepsychology, and addressing questions from participants. Some of the topics we hope to address will include ethical concerns, privacy and security, and the whether it is, or is not, appropriate for carious issues or clients.
