Technology-Based Applications: Radio Psychiatry

Radio psychiatry was introduced in the United States for the first time in 1976. Although it has been around for longer than the electronic communications, it is also a relatively new treatment type. Radio psychiatrists and psychologists can provide advice, information, and referrals, as required by their callers, live on the air. The American Psychiatric and Psychological Associations have issued strict guidelines to limit the role of psychiatrists and psychologists on the radio as a matter of ethical concern. Therefore it is safe to trust the professionals who offer their expertise via Radio Psychiatry.
