Criteria for the effectiveness of direct and remote counseling

The article examines the results of a study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of remote psychological counseling compared to the traditional face-to-face approach. The work is based on the theories of Carl Jung, Aaron Beck, Milton Erickson, E. Rossi, and others, and includes a clinical analysis of two cases using an integrative therapy model. The study aims to define criteria for effectiveness for both approaches, taking into account the clinical picture and patient adaptation, as well as the patient's subjective perception of their condition. The hypotheses suggest that remote counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face counseling, and that the integrative approach is equally effective in both cases. The methodology includes the use of the ORS scale and the SCL-90-R symptomatic questionnaire to assess therapy outcomes. The stages of the research include a theoretical review, preparation for analysis, and the analysis of data itself. The experimental base consists of the analysis of two long-term therapies, allowing for a comparison of the effectiveness of remote and direct counseling.
