Abstract

While numerous evidence-based mental health treatments exist, many individuals in need of services do not receive treatment. Barriers faced by individuals from marginalized populations result in poor access to evidence-based mental health treatment due to a number of factors (e.g., limited availability of services; lack of transportation). Telemental health, the use of videoconferencing to deliver mental health care, offers an innovative way to address significant gaps in access to care and is being used to deliver a variety of treatments. This presentation will feature (1) research on the process and outcomes of telemental health programs for children and adolescents, and (2) clinical perspectives of implementing telemental health with youth, including practical resources
