Today we get to talk with Dr. Carly McCord about how she helped develop the
TeleHealth Counseling Clinic at Texas A & M. Seeing that there was a need in rural
Texas for mental health care, but realizing that clients had huge obstacles in
receiving it (digital divide, transportation, etc) and having many qualified doctoral
students at the University – she worked to combine the need with her students and
added in technology – developing a clinic that has provided online therapy to over
800 clients (that’s 8000 sessions!). We talk about tele-supervision and training
tomorrow’s online therapists.
