Definition
Organizations that offer self-instructional packages which lead the user through a step-by-step program of exercises or other therapeutic activities with the objective of remediating a specific physical or emotional problem such as stuttering, agoraphobia or post traumatic stress disorder, or to offer targeted support during a crisis, e.g., a panic attack. The materials are designed to be used in the home as an alternative to other forms of treatment or counseling, and may be available in a variety of formats including books or other printed materials, CD or DVD, online streaming or as virtual reality (VR) tools.
