Abstract
We have endeavored in this book to provide the reader with not only the set of guidelines that were developed and approved by the American Psychological Association, Association of State and Provincial Psychology Boards, and The Trust, but also descriptions of scenarios in which practitioners of telepsychology may find themselves. The practice of telepsychology presents some very different challenges due to the nature of technology, and it requires adaptation on the part of the client and the psychologist. Each described scenario, regardless of the setting or issue presented, helps psychologists interpret the relevant guidelines and ethical principles. Each situation applies a framework for providing services therapeutically, ethically, and legally. This educational approach helps readers generalize the framework so that they can apply it to future real-life situations, no matter how varied. We hope the casebook will be used in classroom settings, in consultation groups, and by individuals as a resource when considering a potential client for telepsychology and when reviewing treatment plan progress.
