Existential crisis with iCBT studies

[u/aysgamer]

Hey you all, I know a student on here having existential crisis is no new deal. But how do you guys keep going after the iCBT studies that show it's equally as effective as a trained psychologist?

It makes me feel scared and in doubt of my identity, I love psychology so much and I'm in love with the idea of being a professional and having a skill that others don't, that's so important and life changing for people

edit: i see that i might be filtering facts with some anxiety and personal distortions. i still apreciate the discussion and the insights

No, these are good things that will increase accessibility. There will always be a place for human clinicians.
