The changing conditions to provide psychological treatment surrounding the covid-19 pandemic has made clinicians rapidly transition to different e-health solutions. The use of e-health intervention may remain an important tool for a long time to come for patients to access mental health while keeping oneself, the clinician and one’s community safe and maintain physical distancing. For many clinicians the swift change has been hard and has brought along challenges. In addition, clinicians may be governed by certain myths surrounding the provision of e-health. In these webinar series, ESTSS want to support its members to use e-health in daily practice.
