distinct from motor speech impairments or primary language impairments (e.g. aphasia), in that the impairments arise from the diffuse axonal injuries which occur in frontal and prefrontal areas of the brain [6]. These impairments can be defined as any aspect of communication that result from underlying deficits in cognition [4,5,7].Communication difficulties after a TBI can affect how a person hears, listens, understands, speaks, reads, writes, and how they engage in conversation and social communication [5]. The underlying deficits of cognition that affect these communicative functions can include slowed information processing; impaired working memory and attention; disorientation and disorganisation; executive function problems including rigidity, poor conceptualization, planning, and problem solving; and poor self-control or selfregulation of cognition or behaviour [4,5]. As a result of these changes in cognitivecommunicative processes, people with TBI have been described as 'overtalkative, inefficient, tangential or drifting from topic to topic, or lacking in language output. ' [4] (p.354). These cognitive-communication impairments can restrict a person's ability to communicate, live independently, return to work or education, participate in society, and build or maintain relationships after their TBI [8].The International Cognitive (INCOG) guidelines for the management of a person's cognitive rehabilitation following TBI highlight that assessment of cognitive-communication skills should incorporate performance in everyday social activities [4]. Adolescents and young adults, the group most at risk of TBI, use digital and online communication MANUSCRIPT ACCEPTED -BRAIN INJURY: 02 FEBRUARY 2017 4 technologies from a young age [9] and, following TBI, involvement in social, academic, and societal situations may be reduced with difficulties using technology and social media [5]. As a result, people with cognitive-communication impairments resulting from a TBI face challenges in accessing information independently and engaging effectively in social networks [8]. However, little is known about how people with cognitive-communication impairments after TBI use and experience digital communication and the internet.Furthermore, clinical guidelines for the assessment of cognitive-communication skills following a TBI do not provide guidance on the use of social media, or of assistive technologies (AT) to support cognitive-communication rehabilitation [4,5].In order to review the existing literature on technology it is essential to consider which types of technology appear in relation to TBI and cognitive-communication. In this study, we considered three major categories of technology: (i) Assistive Technology (AT), being 'any item, piece of equipment, or product, whether it is acquired commercially, includes technology such as email, the internet, and mobile phones [13] which enable users to access, store, transmit, and manipulate information [14]. The multiple purposes of the different types of technology selected ...

Despite an increasing number of military service members in need of mental health treatment following deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan, numerous psychological and practical barriers limit access to care. Perceived stigma about admitting psychological difficulties as well as frequent long distances to treatment facilities reduce many veterans' willingness and ability to receive care. Telemedicine and virtual human technologies offer a unique potential to expand services to those in greatest need. Telemedicine-based treatment has been used to address multiple psychiatric disorders, including posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and substance use, as well as to provide suicide risk assessment and intervention. Clinician education and training has also been enhanced and expanded through the use of distance technologies, with trainees practicing clinical skills with virtual patients and supervisors connecting with clinicians via videoconferencing. The use of these innovative and creative vehicles offer a significant and as yet unfulfilled promise to expand delivery of high quality psychological therapies, regardless of clinician and patient location.

“…As recent literature has noted the need for counselors to be trained in providing videoconferencing and other online types of counseling (Cardenas, Serrano, Flores, & De la Rosa, 2008;Gilkey, Carey, & Wade, 2009), it is postulated that online group leadership training would be an effective way of improving the group Process Groups Comparison 257 process for participants. In fact, social presence is known as a skill set that can be taught and fostered through learning (Tu, 2000).…”

“…In the coming years, it is imperative that more research is done regarding the training models used to prepare students and practitioners to work with technology. More research should be completed on the effects of intentional training of online counseling skills (Cardenas et al, 2008;Gilkey et al, 2009) and knowledge and how this may impact the overall online group counseling process.…”
