Hi I had CBT about 8 years ago, I received 10 sessions where I met a therapist once a month and we spoke face to face for about an hour. I have been referred for another course, but this time telephone based starting with an assessment. Is this a new thing and is it as good as face to face ? I'm not nervous about speaking on the phone , but it does worry me that I cannot see the other persons expressions etc. My GP feels this is the quickest way for me to start the CBT. I have been referred for severe HA . Thanks for reading.
