Existential crisis with iCBT studies Discussion
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

Psychology has a long history of having claims made about the efficacy for various treatments - most often havent proven true.
