Abstract:
Providing therapy services via Telemental Health (TMH), or teletherapy, has exponentially increased since the COVID-19 pandemic. Although previous research demonstrates that TMH is as effective as in-person therapy, there is a dearth of research on how therapists should address technology-perpetrated abuse and intimate partner violence (IPV) over TMH. This is extremely problematic given the frequency in which violence occurs in romantic relationships. This manuscript aims to address this gap by providing concrete clinical guidelines based on existing literature and professional experience with engaging in TMH services. The authors review literature on technology-perpetrated abuse and discuss innovative ways to assess and treat IPV over TMH by adapting protocols from Domestic Violence-Focused Couple\'s Therapy. Within this, the authors integrate research on high-conflict couples to provide new suggestions on how to manage couples who escalate quickly and who are prone to violence. The manuscript will conclude with future directions for research.
摘要:
通过TelementalHealth(TMH)提供治疗服务,或者远程治疗,自COVID-19大流行以来呈指数增长。尽管先前的研究表明TMH与面对面治疗一样有效,关于治疗师应如何解决因TMH引起的技术滥用和亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)问题的研究缺乏。考虑到暴力在浪漫关系中发生的频率,这是非常有问题的。本手稿旨在通过根据现有文献和从事TMH服务的专业经验提供具体的临床指南来解决这一差距。作者回顾了有关技术滥用的文献,并讨论了通过调整以家庭暴力为重点的夫妻治疗方案来评估和治疗TMH上的IPV的创新方法。在这里面,作者整合了对高冲突夫妇的研究,为如何管理快速升级和容易发生暴力的夫妇提供了新的建议。该手稿将总结未来的研究方向。
