<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The experiences and challenges of psychotherapists working remotely during the coronavirus pandemic were explored using a mixed‐methods approach. An online survey completed by 335 psychotherapists produced both quantitative and qualitative data with the latter being subject to a reflexive thematic analysis.

The great majority of therapists thought that remote working skills should be part of formal therapy trainings.</jats:p>
