	abstract = {The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the adoption of video teleconferencing (VTC) in mental health services, yet neuropsychological practice faced unique challenges due to its reliance on standardized, face-to-face assessment procedures. Despite growing evidence supporting the psychometric reliability of several remotely administered cognitive measures and increasing post-pandemic clinician confidence and patient satisfaction, adoption for neuropsychological assessment has remained comparatively limited. This study aimed to explore clinicians’ experiences with video teleconferencing (VTC) in neuropsychological practice and to identify factors influencing its acceptability and implementation through a focus group of professionals working in clinical neuropsychology. Thematic analysis identified seven themes: (1) populations and clinical contexts, (2) available platforms, (3) advantages of VTC, (4) disadvantages and barriers, (5) role of third parties, (6) strategies developed to overcome limitations, and (7) future perspectives. Overall, the findings indicate that while VTC broadens access, enhances engagement, and supports service continuity, it also introduces challenges that may compromise psychometric rigor, technological stability, and therapeutic rapport. By elucidating barriers and facilitators of implementation, this study contributes to enhancing professional acceptability and confidence, informing the development of standardized procedures, evidence-based guidelines, and structured implementation frameworks for the ethical and reliable integration of videoconferencing in neuropsychological practice.},
