The rhythm of work is gradually busy, so modern people often have great psychological pressure. In The Burnout Society, the Korean German philosopher Byung-Chul Han delves into the violence and freedom of the performance society. This common behavior can lead to depression and mental illness such as overwork. In this context, online therapy has become an effective link for people to end their physical and mental exhaustion. In this article, we introduce you to the six benefits of online therapy via Lecture Capture System.
It is often thought that the lack of face-to-face emotional connection leads to a lack of efficacy, and may even lead to separation anxiety due to a lack of close contact with a professional therapist. The 2016 randomized clinical study, however, found that providing patients with staying at home obtain video remote treatment for depression was as effective as face-to-face visits. A study published in 2018 in the Annals of Behavioral Medicine found that phone-assisted counseling can reduce depression in the long term after some interpersonal therapy.
The following are six advantages of the Lecture Capture System that can help improve online psychotherapy.
Psychological counseling with overly strict scheduling can bring psychological burden to patients to a certain extent. Online remote psychological counseling based on the Lecture Capture System can provide great flexibility and coordination in time scheduling.
Doctors can more easily adjust their schedules, add temporary additional sessions based on the situation, better meet the needs of patients, and avoid absences due to minor matters. This personalized service model can be well integrated with the patient's daily life, rather than being imposed in a fixed way. Both doctors and patients benefit from it. In the long run, it is beneficial to improve the continuation rate and effectiveness of treatment.
Face-to-face psychotherapy may cause some patients to develop a fear of communication. For example, type I personality patients in MBTI personality types are often not good at revealing their psychological disorders to strangers, and even find it difficult to reveal themselves in front of authoritative and professional physicians, which increases anxiety.
However if the Lecture Capture System is used to arrange online psychological counseling, patients can prepare what they want to say in advance, making it easier to express their psychological distress in detail. Doctors can provide more humane responses based on the patient's personality, such as giving them enough time to reflect. Patients can also take control of the pace and progress, without being limited by the interview mode. Therapists can share pictures or videos through high-performance IQVideo Lecture Capture System LCS710, making it easy to understand some difficult-to-explain content face-to-face.
Online remote psychological counseling based on the Lecture Capture System can help break through the limitations of time and space. For example, American psychologists can quickly provide psychological counseling and treatment for patients with mental illnesses who are far away in Japan.

When patients or doctors travel to participate in psychological counseling, the transportation costs they pay are often relatively high, not only due to the expensive transportation costs of long-distance flights but also due to the fatigue of the boat and car, which can easily increase the fatigue of psychological treatment.
When the cost of travel is minimized, it is beneficial for both patients and physicians to have regular follow-up visits in the later stage, maximizing treatment effectiveness.
In addition, online remote psychological counseling based on the Lecture Capture System solves the difficulty of meeting due to distance, which helps to expand the available audience for psychological counseling.
The lecture capture system helps to improve the fairness of psychotherapy.
Some patients with physical disabilities or mental illnesses may not receive professional psychological treatment due to inconvenient travel. For some groups of patients with mobility disorders, such as those with spinal injuries, it may be difficult for them to receive regular face-to-face treatment due to travel restrictions. However, through recorded video consultations, they can fully participate in treatment at home, which greatly reduces geographical and transportation barriers.
The Lecture Capture System also allows opportunities for psychological counseling to no longer be limited by the limited number of treatment rooms in hospitals, expanding the possibilities of space and the feasibility of dialogue.
The two ePTZ cameras with a resolution of 8.4 million pixels on the IQVideo Lecture Capture System LCS710 can capture the images of therapists and patients clearly. The camera adopts automatic tracking technology, which can intelligently switch between panoramic and close-up views during the psychotherapy process.
By reviewing the consultation and treatment process recorded by the camera, the psychologist can reflect on their performance in the conversation and whether there are areas for improvement, such as the need to enhance their expression ability. This is beneficial for continuously improving one's consulting skills.
At the same time, being able to study the treatment process in detail can help the counselor identify important information that the patient may not have directly mentioned but is implicit in their language and facial expressions. This helps to better understand patients and advance treatment.
In addition, to protect the privacy of patients, video materials processed through anonymization can also be used as teaching materials to provide references for future training and learning.
It helps clients to have a deeper understanding and mastery of the various suggestions and treatment methods provided by consultants. Through videos, they can observe the counselor's language expression, body language, and intonation, which is very helpful for understanding the emotional counseling path of psychological counselors.
There is a recording available for review at any time, and patients with psychological disorders do not have to worry about being interrupted or having unclear details when presenting their questions. They can review important content multiple times based on their own progress and needs. For example, when facing difficulties, watch the corresponding module again and follow the guidance of the video to take action. This helps to deeply apply suggestions to daily life.
The IQVideo Lecture Capture System LCS710 is compatible with the RTMP/RTMPS streaming protocol. By sharing videos, the client's family and friends can also understand the challenges and coping methods they face, further assisting them in their recovery. This is conducive to building a mutual assistance and support system, recording one's own progress of change, and strengthening confidence and a sense of achievement. Having records to prove, one can more intuitively discover the progress they have made.
Above all, we know that with the help of a high-performance Lecture Capture System, whatever client or mental therapist can get powerful assistance, it is not a cool device system without the warmth of human relationships, but an integrated bridge to repair mental illnesses.
