Author Evolution in E-Therapy

Currently the market is flooding with different kinds of e-therapy. Most of
these electronic sessions consist of writing an essay which the therapist
then reads and reacts to (email therapy). There is a new innovative system
(therapy expert system) that works without the (remote) assistence of a
skilled (and expensive) therapist. The client performs a set of structured
mental exercises with the aid of a support person. Currently it is being
used in the Netherlands where it was initially developped. Preliminairy
results are very promising.

This might be the next evolutionary step in internet based therapy, in which
you might be interested.

Sincerely,
