eTherapy refers to the delivery of directive treatment-oriented therapeutic material for specific clinical disorders via internet or other communication technologies (e.g. mobile phone) commonly with the assistance of a health professional.
Since 1998, our team has been leading the development, evaluation and delivery of these internet-based treatment programs.
National eTherapy Centre (NeTC)
The eTherapy Unit is in the process of developing the ‘National eTherapy Centre (NeTC) funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing that will provide
'ANXIETY ONLINE', a virtual treatment clinic for the anxiety disorders. This will comprise of a psycho-educational website for information about all the anxiety disorders, an e-psychological assessment system,
internet-based clinical treatment (with therapist assistance) to Australians who have an anxiety disorder and automated self-help clinical treatment for people with an anxiety disorder worldwide. The individual treatment programs will cover: generalised anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, panic disorder with or without agoraphobia, post-traumatic stress disorder and social anxiety disorder. We will also provide online training courses for eTherapists and clinical eSupervisors.
These programs will be available in early 2009.
