Abstract
Seventy-two UK health and education practitioners reported their experiences of moving from in-person to online therapeutic conversations during Covid-19 restrictions. Up to two-thirds considered continuing online meetings post-lifting of restrictions and almost all reported adaptations that supported beneficial interactions online, informing the development of evidence-based guidelines for best online practice.
