Psychotherapy 2.0
The digital age is both exciting and challenging for psychotherapy, opening the door to client groups previously not able to access psychological help, whilst also providing the challenges caused by social media and internet abuse and how these impact the consulting room.
Psychotherapy 2.0 blows open the consulting room doors and shows successful pathways for attracting new clients to gain access to psychological help. It demonstrates that, despite initial scepticism, working online as a psychotherapist or counsellor can be as effective as 'face2face' work: the therapeutic relationship may be different, but it remains the centrally important feature for successful psychotherapy.
It follows, therefore, that all psychotherapists and counsellors need to be fully informed about the impact of the digital age on their clinical practice. Psychotherapy 2.0 covers the key issues for psychotherapists and counsellors who are, or are considering, working online. It includes discussions on psychotherapy in the digital age and the requirements to modify training both for working online and for addressing digital issues as they arise within the face-to-face consulting room.
This book is intended as a first volume in this fast-changing field, with further volumes intended to concentrate on existing and emerging research, as well as the diverse ways in which online work is already being developed and implemented worldwide. It is possibly the greatest moment of change for psychotherapy since Freud: there is no going back, and just as we cannot put toothpaste back in the tube, psychotherapy practice is changed forever with the advent of the digital age.
