Description

Presenter:  Dr. Stephen Schueller

 

 

Overview:         

 

A multitude of mental health apps exist with various features and capabilities (Lagan et al., 2021). However, despite the proliferation of mental health apps few providers are using these tools in their clinical practice (Schueller, Washburn, & Price, 2016). This webinar will discuss various competencies related to the use of mental health apps in clinical practice (Schueller, Armstrong, Neary, & Ciulla, 2022) focusing on aspects such as credibility, user experience, and data security and privacy (Neary & Schueller, 2018; O’Loughlin, Neary, Adkins, & Schueller, 2019). This webinar will incorporate best practices in the use of these tools (Schueller et al., 2022) and emphasize some of the challenges providers might face when incorporating these tools into their practice.
