Overview

What is this study about?
The purpose of this study is to better understand what it is like for children and families to engage in therapy services online (also known as telehealth or teletherapy).  We are interested in doing interviews with parents and children as we believe they can provide a helpful perspective on how mental health professionals should use telehealth.  

Information from this study will be used to help clinicians understand patient experiences with teletherapy and use services like these to best help children and adolescents with their mental health concerns.

Who can take part?
Parents with children who have participated in online therapy services (teletherapy) in the past year.
