Workbook of Play Therapy - Essentials and Beyond
Resilience in the Age of COVID-19
Resilience is the ability to bounce back when things do not go as planned. What we did not plan on is the current problem with our economy. Usually economies fall into recession, move into recovery and beginning a new business cycle. But what we are seeing with COVID-19 is a deep recession leading to a less noticeable, but ongoing, recession that may leave a few scars on our economy. Considering this, it seems important to think about what keeps us stable during these unstable times.
Telehealth Support during COVID-19 Crisis
There is good evidence that Teletherapy works. Virtual services are effective for mental health diagnosis and assessment across many populations and disorders in various settings. According to current research, online sessions appear to be comparable to face-to-face care. Telehealth brings services to remote areas or helps those who are homebound due to illness or handicap. Video sessions really are convenient eliminating the need for driving, traffic, parking or waiting rooms. These factors save a client time and money. Currently, most Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) can now cover the session cost. Through telehealth experience, I have noticed that some clients even gain therapeutic benefits with an online venue. Many are more relaxed at home; therefore, portraying a truer Self that leads to more quickly reaching their treatment goals. So, if you have a computer and an Internet connection, Teletherapy may be a safe and convenient option for you to receive needed support during a particularly challenging time.
