Abstract
Telemental health (TMH) practitioners must familiarize themselves with specific telehealth technologies, apply them appropriately, and understand risks and benefits to mitigate problems. This technical understanding is also essential as they educate their clients/patients about such issues as part of the informed consent process. This chapter focuses primarily on descriptions of technologies and how they are used in TMH. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
