Abstract

La terapia psicológica online por videoconferencia ha sido una alternativa ampliamente utilizada tras la pandemia por COVID-19. Este estudio tiene los propósitos de seguir estudiando el éxito de esta modalidad además de otros indicadores clínicos menos estudiados, como la eficiencia y la adherencia al tratamiento en comparación con la terapia en modalidad presencial. Se utilizaron los datos de 174 participantes, 87 de cada modalidad. Ambas modalidades de tratamiento resultaron exitosas, sin haber diferencias entre ellas salvo en el porcentaje de objetivos terapéuticos cumplidos, mayor en la modalidad online. No se encontraron diferencias en adherencia al tratamiento. La eficiencia fue mayor en la modalidad presencial en la fase de tratamiento y en la terapia en su conjunto, no siendo así en la fase de evaluación. Se plantean hipótesis que intentan explicar estas diferencias, entre ellas las referidas a la relación terapéutica, además de abrir la puerta al planteamiento de futuros estudios que continúen en esta línea de investigación.
