Abstract

The authors make an analysis and reflection of their experience in online psychotherapy in the times of the Covid-19 pandemic, from which they present the experience of some authors from other countries such as Migone (Italy), Scharf (United States), Weinberg (United States), Rodríguez Ceberio (Argentina). They also present and reflect on what they experienced and lived as psychotherapists at that time, as well as commenting on the therapeutic operations and how they perceived them online. They add their comments about the Integrative Psychotherapy systems that they practiced online and their effectiveness, attesting to them. They leave a space to also comment on the phenomenon of the therapist's countertransference, and finally reach some interesting conclusions about the work of online Psychotherapy.
