    Treatment Program utilizes On-Line Psychotherapy
    by Jeff Long, 12/14/98

    A group of treatment programs for adolescents, some of which are located out of the country, utilizes "On-Line Therapy". This is reportedly so that an adolescent who enters into the program can continue therapy with a therapist they may be established with back home.

    I have dissonant thoughts about the program itself, let alone the use of internet media to engage in Psychotherapy. I am keeping an open mind though.

    I am in touch with a family who has accessed one of the treatment programs. I will be happy to share whatever non-confidential information in this forum if there is interest.

    Finally, you can find out about these programs at the following URL:

    this page is an index of the various programs available. You will have to follow some of the site-specific links to find the cyber-therapy related information.

    Thanks
