Logistical, ethical, and legal considerations for implementation are reviewed. This literature review informs family and consumer sciences professionals about asynchronous mental health interventions and facilitates their implementation in an increasingly technology-based society.</p>","PeriodicalId":46383,"journal":{"name":"Family & Consumer Sciences Research Journal","volume":"54 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/fcsr.70031","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145204723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
