Abstract

Research on the development and effectiveness of internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy with a trauma focus (iCBT-T) has been actively conducted in Western societies, but these studies have just begun in Korea. The purpose of this study was to suggest practical considerations to developing and managing the iCBT-T program. After reviewing previous studies on iCBT-T, this author suggested a model of convergence and collaboration between mental health knowledge and information and communication technologies (ICT) to develop the iCBT-T program. This article outlines practical considerations, including focus and target groups of iCBT-T, intervention types of iCBT-T (open access vs. guided), number of sessions, ethical issues, professional support, and degree of user involvement. Methods to complement the limitations of internet as a medium are also proposed in the iCBT-T program. The convergence model of CBT-T and ICT is expected to promote the development of programs that can contribute to improving the mental health of users who experience traumatic events.

트라우마 초점의 인터넷 기반 인지행동치료(internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy with a trauma focus: iCBT-T)의 개발 및 효과 검증 연구가 서구에서 활발하게 진행되고 있는 것에 비해, 한국 사회에서는 관련 연구가 최근에야 시작되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 iCBT-T 프로그램 개발과 운영의 고려사항을 제안하는 것이다. 먼저, iCBT-T와 관련된 선행 연구를 고찰한 후, iCBT-T 프로그램을 개발하기 위해 정신건강 지식과 ICT 기술을 융합하는 모형을 제시하였다. 그런 다음, iCBT-T의 초점과 표적 집단, 개입의 유형(오픈 액세스 vs. 안내형), 회기 수, 윤리적 이슈, 전문적 지원 및 이용자의 참여를 포함한 실질적 고려사항을 다루고, iCBT-T에서 인터넷 매체의 한계를 보완하기 위한 방법들을 제안하였다. 트라우마 초점의 인지행동치료와 ICT 기술의 융합 모델이 트라우마 사건을 경험한 많은 이용자들의 정신건강의 향상에 기여할 수 있는 프로그램 개발을 촉진하기를 기대한다.
