What is e-counselling?
More and more people are using the Internet for support and information on problems they face in their lives, and for personal growth. There are many applications and programs which support different forms of counselling such as open forums on various topics, discussion and therapy groups facilitated by a professional, and one-to-one interactions between one or more clients and a counsellor, made possible using chat software. This is often called online counselling, e-counselling or e-therapy. Telephone and email counselling are also considered online counselling.
