%X In the process of the institutionalisation of online counseling, legal frameworks are formulated. In Austria, these frameworks concern the psychotherapists and psychologists who work online according to the internet guidelines of the Federal Ministry of Health. The article acknowledges the effort which is being made for a differentiated approach and regulation in terms of patient welfare, and questions to what extent a ban on the use of asynchronous media (i.e. e-mailcounseling) as part of the online-counseling process is technically sound and consumer-friendly.
