Speaking on "Healing Is A Choice" Saturday July 26th!

Everyone is struggling during this COVID-19 pandemic. Access to in-person therapy sessions has come to a halt. I had to adapt to like all businesses and helping professionals. Transitioning to a paperless practice has been a huge feat for me without IT help, but I am finally able to practice without creating another paper client file! My patients will no longer have to handle a single piece of paper or sign with a pen! You will receive therapy via video and sign all your therapy documents electronically! Providing Telehealth therapy took some getting used to but based on my research and my experience providing video therapy, I found it to be just as beneficial as in-person therapy. There are many benefits, but a few of them are no more fighting through traffic to get to my office or go through dreaded tunnels or crossing bridges you are deathly afraid of. You can do therapy from the comfort of your home or office, and no more trying to find childcare because you can be home and receive therapy at the same tim

Schools, churches, conferences, birthday parties, weddings, and employment have closed down. This is an anxiety inducing time for caregivers and children. As caregivers, we need to sit down and debrief with children. Find out what they are seeing and hearing through their social media outlets. Empathize and help them modulate their fears. It doesn't help children, when we tell them not to be afraid because their brain takes in data and tells them otherwise. For example: If your 10 year old son or daughter fortune-tells that he or she will get sick and die, you may respond by saying, "You are very scared that you will get sick aren't you? Daddy doesn't want to be sick either. Because of all the things we have seen on TV and on the internet, it is frightening to think about getting sick. I have seen them too."
