Create Connection from a Distance: Making Telehealth Relational
Janina Fisher, PhD shares her pro tips for transcending the limitations of telehealth and establishing a sense of closeness with your clients.
The Covid-19 pandemic and recent upheaval to our daily lives and social connections has been traumatic for thousands of people. Not only that, but this unprecedented time in our lives has the power to trigger past trauma, which compounds the current anxiety, depression and fear people are experiencing.
Compounding this problem is that you’re also being asked to treat clients from a distance, using telehealth options that can be unfamiliar for both clients and therapists.
So, now that distance therapy is the “new normal” when treating clients, how can you overcome the two-dimensional limitations of the screen to create a sense of connection with your clients?
In this short video, trauma treatment expert Janina Fisher shares her pro tips for helping clients feel engaged, listened to and understood—no matter where you are.
