First of all, a big virtual hug to you.

These are tough times.

I decided to keep my therapy practice open and offer sessions virtually. I look forward to supporting you and meeting with you exactly where you are in this new way. I am still researching whether insurance will cover telehealth and the policies are updated daily. If you are using insurance to pay for sessions, I recommend calling your insurance company to verify that telehealth is a part of your plan. 

Take a deep breath. exhale slowly. Connect with yourself and this moment. Drop down into your body. Ask yourself, "what is the smallest, kindest thing I can do for myself right now?"

Do that one small thing.

And to close, here are some words of wisdom gathered from various sources for our path forward...
