“This work is meant to educate those unfamiliar with advances in mental health treatment using telecommunications, as well as to inform those already working in these environments with these technologies about the most recent evidence-based practices. … This book provides a succinct summary of what e-mental health is, and what it has the possibility to become. … its contents are valuable and thought-provoking.” (Steven T. Herron, Doody’s Book Reviews, April, 2016)
