Welcome to the First International E-Mental Health Summit 2009 website!

The e-mental health world is seeing the advent of a new generation of applications. Online Mindfullness, for instance, and – besides cognitive behaviour therapy – problemsolving-directed therapy via internet. Positive psychology and serious gaming are now both also being deployed in the prevention and treatment of mental, somatic or lifestyle-related illnesses and complaints.

The First International E-Mental Health Summit 2009 launches its conference on Wednesday 14 October 2009 with the 4th ISRII meeting (for ISRII members only).

The themes will include the effectiveness of Digital Self-help, Supervised Self-help, Treatment Interventions, and the presentation of a number of new-generation digital interventions.

The programme committee warmly invites researchers, health care professionals, policymakers and internet specialists to submit abstracts of their verbal presentations and poster presentations.

Here you will find for more information on conference themes, abstract guidelines and submission. Abstracts can be submitted until 1 May 2009.
