Couples group therapy conducted via computer-mediated communication: A preliminary case study

摘要

This report will describe an experiment in shifting a couples group from sessions held in my office (or ‘in-real-life’ as computer users might say) to sessions conducted from our homes using personal computers. I will place this experiment in context, describe some of the process (including what may be the first reported ‘Freudian slip’ in cyberspace), and then mention some limitations and potentialities of group therapy conducted via computer-mediated communication.
