Telemental health is a ubiquitous form of treatment that has been around for over a half‐century, but there remains minimal research on videoconferencing and relational therapy. The purpose of this qualitative study is to identify how telemental health therapists would implement experiential interventions for children, couples, and families. Twelve trainees (n = 12) that participated in a yearlong telemental health practicum were prompted on three experiential interventions to understand how students adapt relational interventions for telemental health delivery. Intervention prompts included couple de‐escalation, family sculpt, and sand tray. Using thematic analysis, five themes emerged to describe the implementation of the interventions: (a) adapting verbal communication skills, (b) grand expressions: adapting nonverbal communication, (c) additional preparations to facilitate interventions, (d) flexibility, and (e) self‐of‐the‐therapist. Study findings, limitations, and clinical implications are discussed in further detail.

通过远程心理健康提供的体验式家庭治疗干预：一项定性实施研究

远程心理健康是一种无处不在的治疗形式，已经存在了半个多世纪，但对视频会议和关系治疗的研究仍然很少。这项定性研究的目的是确定远程心理健康治疗师如何为儿童、夫妻和家庭实施体验式干预。十二名学员 ( n= 12) 参加为期一年的远程心理健康实习的学生被提示进行三项体验式干预，以了解学生如何适应远程心理健康提供的关系干预。干预提示包括夫妻降级、家庭造型和沙盘。使用主题分析，出现了五个主题来描述干预措施的实施：(a) 调整口头交流技巧，(b) 宏观表达：调整非语言交流，(c) 促进干预的额外准备，(d) 灵活性，以及​​ (e ) 自我治疗师。进一步详细讨论了研究结果、局限性和临床意义。
