Background
I am working, with my wife Therese, on a new project developing innovative technology and solutions around leveraging the internet, Web 2.0 technologies and therapy based programs written by an experienced professional (ie, clinical psychologist).

This Wikipedia entry will attempt to summarise the research into current uses of the internet to provide psychological and associated services as well as our thoughts and findings on the subject matter.

To date, we have found no solid references to the work that we are undertaking, hence this Wikipedia entry.

The term that we are attempting to define is : Psybertherapy 2.0

We welcome comments, contributions, feedback on this definition.
