That is interesting.  I can see that approach being more readily available to someone who does not have time to meet with someone face to face, or for someone who has a hard time in interpersonal relationships, or is dealing with an embarrassing issue - and could open up more online.   i can also see your point.  What does she say about her ability to protect the client from breeches in confidentiality.  This would seem to be an important ethical point to me.
Otherwise, with all of the different types of therapy available, I think that there are probably very well many people who might prefer this approach - if there is a market for it, and people feel that they are being served well by it...as long as conifdentiality is preserved...I say it is up to the client to decide what works best for them.  :)  jenn

Hi my name is Luke, I'm a graduate mental health counseling student
at Marshall just about to finish my second semester.

Thought i'd raise a topic for discussion...online counseling.

I came across an Australian website, advertising the services of
an "online counselor". The website describes her degrees (one in
science and one in psychology) in very loose terms and the counselor
doesn't give any initials after her name, or any sign of
any "counselor" training.

It seems very unethical to me for this kind of service to be offered.
Her "sessions" are done all online, but not in a chatroom or a
messenger system, but via emails and so each session could "span
several days or longer".

I support online counseling if it is done in conjunction with live
meetings, is a constant online experience (like in a private, secure
chatroom or messenger system) and is used for clients who have
difficulties getting to sessions for whatever reasons.

Any thoughts?

I would contact the chairperson of the Marshall Counseling Department
to see if they can give you an "Official" answer.

I've bee\n so confused and just told so many different things, but I do
have a question. Why do school counselors have to take the PPST at
Marshall before they can enter into a the program? People who don't
have their teaching certificate have to take this test, but somehow
once you graduate from the school counseling program your not able to
substitute teach because you still don't have a teaching certificate.
What is going on with our system and why do we hold back dedicated and
hard working students for more money?
