About Kate Dunn

I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor, supervisor, and consultant/trainer

currently working in private practice both online and face-to-face. Whilst

working as a counsellor in a university setting, I established an online

service and subsequently carried out research into the Online Therapeutic

Relationship, supported by Seed Corn Funding from BACP. I have shared

ideas resulting from this research in journal articles (including Therapy

Today, Counselling and Psychotherapy Research Journal, and TILT magazine) and in the book: "Psychotherapy 2.0: Where Psychotherapy and Technology Meet",

Edited by P Weitz, Karnac Books 2014.

About Carole Francis-Smith

I am a counselling psychologist working in private practice. I currently

provide therapy and supervision both face-to-face and online, run trainings

for therapists considering working online (and other mental health/staff

resilience areas), and business coaching for therapists setting up an

online practice. My doctoral research was in the Online Therapeutic

Relationship from which I also became fascinated by online

communications in broader contexts, especially where these impact on the work of therapists and the experiences of clients. I'm an advocate of Compassionate Mind

training/Compassion Focused therapy and have recently been taking a look at what can happen

to compassion when communicating in online contexts. The Netiquette guidelines I produced are

in the process of being adopted by the Compassionate Mind Foundation as good practice.
