This book provides clinicians with an overview of the use of technology in mental health services historically, during a crisis (i.e., pandemic), and the potential aftereffects.

Understanding the path to the use of technology in therapy, the power of the use of such tools, and the potential implications on the future of psychology services, approaches, and theories is critical to all mental health providers.

This book provides the reader with compact, comprehensive information geared toward the direct implementation of ideas and reformulation of psychology practice as we have known it for over a century.

Reviews and Endorsements

"Dr. Jessica Stone provides a great resource for understanding the complexities of new technologies in mental health. Useful to both digital natives as well as therapists less experienced with tech, the book offers a multidisciplinary framework for empowering professionals to embrace today's digital solutions and customize them for patients' needs." Valentino Megale, PhD, CEO Softcare Studios.

"Technology in Mental Health takes the mental health professional on a journey-a mindful and educated journey. This resource gives the therapist a clear understanding of the 'why' of technology in mental health with a thorough review of grounded mental health processes and their application within technology-based practices. The book further highlights the 'how,' educating professionals in how to implement the intersection of technology and mental health. If you have been curious or are needing validation for the use of technology in mental health care, this is your new resource." - Robert Jason Grant, EdD, RPT-S, author and creator of AutPlay (R) Therapy.

"Innovation often dances with fear of the unknown. Dr. Stone carves a clear path in this essential foundational text about our inevitable transformation into the field of digital mental health. She normalizes and defines our space of human discomfort, dives into the crux of our mind and biology to eloquently explore our inner workings, educates us on essential digital ethical and cultural considerations, and guides us to deep understanding of how digital technologies can truly align with us be utilized as part of mental healthcare practice. Dr. Stone and her work are a true gift to our profession and the future of mental healthcare." - Rachel A. Altvater, PsyD, RPT-S.
