I find that technology use in counseling is a bi-directional process of both providing solutions to needs I know exist and finding new uses for the technology I have in hand.
As an example of the former, last spring I discovered the scheduling program Doodle so I could simplify the process of setting up multiple meetings per week. Rather than collecting and organizing the schedules of a dozen colleagues for each meeting through email, the online solution Doodle does all that for me. All I do is post a few times when I am available for a meeting, send out the link, and others indicate when they can meet. A visual picture quickly forms of when the meeting can take place and scheduling is done. As an additional benefit, because people can see the entries ahead of their own, subsequent responses are influenced toward mutually agreeable times.
