What is the study about and why is it being done?
The purpose of the study is to better understand the attitudes, opinions, and beliefs that counselors and counseling students hold regarding factors that may influence their decision to engage in telemental health services. For the purpose of this study, telemental health services is defined as the use of live (i.e., synchronous) video conferencing for therapy, assessment, and other therapeutic interventions.
