It has been difficult to weigh everything, but yesterday I decided to move to online only sessions for the foreseeable future. My sweet husband helped me move my desk and chair home last night.
I am hoping at this point that this will be for the next several weeks, but there is a lot unknown for right now. What I do know for sure is that we are all in the together, and eventually the dust will settle.
We are using a video streaming service through Simple Practice (our current practice management system) that is HIPAA compliant, and I will be sending you a link prior to the session that you can use easily without downloading software if you are on your computer. If you use it from a phone you’ll need to download the simple practice Telehealth app. I can do phone sessions but I would must prefer video when possible.
My hope is that we can give this a try, and reassess if needed. I am working very hard to try to provide the best therapy through Telehealth that I can and make sure that my clients can continue our progress with our work.
My priority is to do my part to take care of the community. After educating myself and speaking with several health care professionals, I now see it’s imperative that we all stay home as much as possible.
I absolutely want to be here to walk through this stress and trying times with you.
PS I am doing my best to stay positive through all this. There is so much to worry about. But can I say that I am looking forward to sharing a space with my sweet dog?
Take care xx
