Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, telebehavioral health (TBH) was proving itself to be a valuable, effective tool for service delivery. The widespread adoption of its use over the past 2 years for continuity of care should be considered one of the silver linings of the pandemic. It has the potential to be a particularly powerful tool for providing more equitable access to care for those in rural communities if barriers to broadband access can be addressed. In addition to providing an attractive, flexible method of service delivery for patients and families, TBH holds appeal to the workforce as well.

Background: Physical activity has the potential to improve physical and mental health outcomes of persons with depression. However, feasible and acceptable strategies to integrate physical activity interventions into real-world settings are needed.
Objective: To assess the feasibility and acceptability of a manualized Behavioral Activation intervention aimed to increase physical activity in persons with depression (defined as a PHQ-9 score ≥ 10).

Background: Behavioral health conditions among children have worsened over the past decade. Caregivers for children with behavioral health conditions are at risk for two types of caregiver strain: (1) an objective strain, that results directly from the child's condition and (2) subjective strain, that arises from the caregiver's feelings regarding these events.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a technology-enabled pediatric and family behavioral health service on caregivers' strain among a commercially insured population.

Objective: To conduct a systematic literature review of education and training (E&T) programs for telemental health (TMH) providers in the past 10 years to qualitatively clarify field offerings and methodologies, as well as identify areas for future growth.
Methods: We searched five major electronic databases: PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, CINAHL, and Web of Science for original publications on TMH E&T from January 2013 to May 2023. We extracted information from each publication and summarized key features of training programs including setting, target group, study aims, training modality, methods of assessing quality, and outcomes.

Older adults are an underserved population with a broad-spectrum of care needs due to multi-morbidity, including increasing rates of mental health conditions. Though a prime target for tele-behavioral health due to access barriers, older adults face a persistent digital divide that necessitates clinician training and education to ensure interprofessional tele-behavioral health is tailored to their needs. This paper presents findings from a simulation learning program designed to teach students about the role of video telehealth with populations with diverse needs.
