The COVID-19 pandemic has made quarantine and physical distancing regulations part of life. Clinicians often wonder how they can continue providing effective mental health support virtually, in light of “Zoom fatigue” and many school closings for months ahead. This webinar will review resources, techniques, and considerations to deliver teletherapy and support the mental health needs of clients who may rely on mental health support more than ever before.
Join this free, 60-minute webinar where we will discuss how to adjust to prolonged social distancing requirements as a mental health provider:
- Describe the categories of digital services that are applicable for different clinical purposes.
- Prepare to incorporate more teletherapy tools in their clinical practice.
- Evaluate the available options for maintaining an effective working alliance in remote therapy.
