Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences, such as contact restrictions, pose new challenges to psychiatric-psychotherapeutic care in many parts of the world. This article provides an overview of digital methods for treating mental disorders under pandemic conditions and for reducing pandemic-related psychological distress (e.g., due to social isolation). Current challenges and limitations in the use of digital treatment options and their long-term perspectives in psychiatric-psychotherapeutic care are discussed.
