Does Teletherapy Work?

Teletherapy was used extensively during the pandemic and has remained as an option for situations where location can become a barrier to delivering services. Many therapists, including myself, were thrust into this new service model and learned through trial and error how best to make it work.  I have discovered, to my surprise, that teletherapy was quite effective as a service model . Today  I  conduct services over zoom for clients that can not come for in person therapy. For a young child, it requires full parent participation which is great for parents as they become a vital partner in the therapy process. Having a computer instead of a phone or tablet and a good internet connection are important.
