ABSTRACT
Individuals living with psychosis are often underserved in the United States, partly due to the dearth of providers trained in evidence-based practices for this population. One such practice is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis, which the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration has identified as a standard of care for this population. The explosion of telehealth, in large part due to the COVID-19 pandemic, has led to increased opportunities for virtual psychotherapy. Telehealth offers a number of benefits, such as the ability to address service inequities, including lack of access to a local provider well-trained in the modality of therapy needed. The current article describes the National Psychosis Telehealth Program within the National Expert Consultation and Specialized Services (formerly VA National Telemental Health Center) program, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The goal of this telehealth program is to utilize an expert consultation model and offer a remote individual, time-limited Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for psychosis protocol to Veterans across the nation in order to decrease access disparities to this relatively scarce service. We share our initiation activities and lessons learned as we developed this program in hopes of encouraging others to consider similar efforts at their sites. We also include a typical, complex case that serves to illustrate the challenges and benefits of this approach. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
