Even without knowing the definition, many counselors nevertheless are involved in some area of telepsychology.

This sidebar summarizes some of the direct benefits for Christian counselors. For me, as a doctoral student, counselor, and pastor, the Internet journey continues. I am committed to using the Internet as a tool to improve my ability to serve. I encourage you to join me on the journey. Jesus words, To whom much has been given, much will be required, encourage us to use our opportunities for him. We can use the technology of the personal computer to make an impact for Christ all around the world!
