Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought with it a great need for the use of telepsychotherapy and other interventions using psychological theories and techniques to support both mental and physical health.E-mental health presents a wide range of opportunities in mental healthcare to overcome barriers for receiving conventional psychological care, especially when psychotherapists and clients find themselves in (self)quarantine resulting from a pandemic.For many psychotherapists and clients, the current situation provides a first experience with e-mental health and reliance on telepsychotherapy or other means of technology to provide or receive care respectively.Psychotherapeutic circumstances may often be suboptimal, with psychotherapists and clients experiencing difficulties finding a private space or sufficient time for an undisturbed consultation.This paper aims to highlight recommendations on how to create the best possible context in which e-mental health supplements and enhances current services for clients.These recommendations are grouped according to three categories of key stakeholders: psychotherapists, health services and regulatory agencies, and developers.This paper focuses on: (1) how to make optimal use of technology in psychotherapeutic practice, (2) how to integrate e-mental health into the healthcare system to allow for a safe, transparent and effective environment for (self) care, and (3) how to develop e-mental health applications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
