Digital Interventions in Mental Health: Reviews and Recommendations for Application in Clinical Practice and Supervision

Abstract Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT) think tank was to bring together thought leaders in the study of digital mental health to consider ways in which the field can be advanced, as well as find methods to facilitate ABCT members’ knowledge of Digital Mental Health Interventions (DMHI). As part of this effort, we proposed this Special Issue to provide C & BP readers with an update on the field of digital mental health interventions and clinical resources. The articles that follow will provide an introduction and overview of the progress that has been made in the field of CBT digital mental health interventions, discuss the limitations, risks, and considerations when using DMHI, and consider directions for future research and development. It is our hope that they can help researchers, clinicians, administrators and educators feel informed and equipped to make clinical and programmatic choices involving digital mental health tools and programs in their own settings.
