Online counseling is the provision of professional mental health counseling services through the Internet. Computer aided technologies are used by the trained professional counsellors and individuals seeking counselling services to communicate rather than conventional face-to-face interactions[17] . Online counselling is also referred as an e-therapy, cyber therapy, or web counselling[18]. Services are typically offered via email, real-time chat, and video conferencing. Some clients use online counseling in conjunction with traditional psychotherapy, or nutritional counseling. Increasing number of clients are using online counseling as a replacement for office visits.
