Terapie na telefonu – co to je a proč ji zvolit

When working with terapie na telefonu, je forma psychoterapie poskytovaná prostřednictvím telefonního hovoru, která umožňuje klientovi i terapeutovi komunikovat bez nutnosti osobního setkání. Also known as telefonní terapie, it expands access to mental health support, especially for those in remote areas or with mobility constraints.

One major sibling of terapie na telefonu is online terapie, terapie probíhající přes videokonference nebo chatové platformy. While both belong to the broader field of telepsychologie, věda o poskytování psychologických služeb na dálku, phone therapy is distinct because it relies solely on voice, which can feel less intrusive and easier to schedule. Another related concept is krizová intervence, rychlá podpora v akutních situacích, často poskytovaná telefonicky. Crisis calls illustrate how therapy on the phone can bridge gaps when face‑to‑face help is unavailable. Finally, the etický kodex, pravidla a normy, které řídí chování psychoterapeutů shapes how professionals handle confidentiality, consent, a bezpečnost při telefonních sezeních.

Proč je terapie na telefonu stále populárnější

Phone therapy expands accessibility (entity‑predicate‑object: therapy on the phone requires a stable connection). It also reduces stigma—many clients feel safer discussing sensitive topics from the comfort of their own space. Studies from Czech mental‑health institutes show that dropout rates drop by up to 20 % when a phone option is offered. Additionally, crisis intervention via phone can be delivered within minutes, which often makes the difference between escalation and stabilization. The ethical code ensures that even in a voice‑only setting, confidentiality is rigorously protected and therapists follow clear documentation standards.

When you consider practicalities, you’ll notice three key requirements: a quiet environment, a reliable phone line or mobile data, and a clear agreement about session length and fees. The therapist usually sends a short written summary after each call, fulfilling the ethical mandate for record‑keeping while giving the client a tangible reminder of the work done. This approach also aligns with legislative guidelines for online therapy in the Czech Republic, which state that remote sessions must meet the same professional standards as in‑person work.
