OverviewThis book explores the current developments and future implications of psychotherapeutic theories, research methodologies, and practices in this rapidly advancing digital economy. This book is an invaluable resource for those interested in: • The effects of our ‘information economy’ on our brains, consciousness, inner world and the way as psychotherapists we conceptualise • The promise of autonomous psychotherapy programmes that integrate ‘therapy with the actual relationship experiences of the individual user’ • Whether traditional psychotherapy can provide the best antidote to the ills of our digital age. An overarching concern is that we will no longer be able to control technology. Hence, the need to be clearer not only regarding the effect of the digital era on the processes of the psychological therapies but the effects on us, as people who are clients/patients and psychological therapists - perhaps before it is too late, if isn’t already. This book was originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of Psychotherapy & Counselling.
