<p>This text explores the evolution, efficacy, and unique challenges of psychodynamic teletherapy, tracing its roots from historical epistolary methods to modern internet-based treatments. Psychodynamic teletherapy, particularly in its synchronous (e.g., video conferencing) and asynchronous (e.g., guided self-help) forms, has garnered increased attention due to its potential to bridge geographic barriers and enhance accessibility. Despite these advantages, concerns persist regarding the translation of psychodynamic principles—such as the therapeutic relationship and the exploration of emotions—into a virtual setting. Evidence suggests that while teletherapy can be effective, it may pose challenges in fostering deep emotional connections and replicating the in-room therapeutic experience. This text examines psychodynamic teletherapy outcome studies, therapist and patient experiences, and the necessity for adapting psychodynamic interventions to maintain therapeutic efficacy in remote formats, especially by creating tele-presence, or the feeling of a shared reality despite the remote setting. The text also highlights the need for flexibility and new skills to navigate the evolving landscape of psychodynamic treatment at a distance.</p>
