7:28 Operating as a therapist during Covid-19

If I'm in a panic and I'm a therapist, I KNOW my patients are in a panic. It was time for me to get to work. 

9:57 Covid-19 and virtually meetings has changed the whole dynamic of therapy, face-to face. My office was their peace and now clients are having to find peace in their car during our session. 

11:26 A "day by day" pandemic and the media confusing our country

13:21 How do you stay sane as a therapist during this uncertain time? I'm in therapy every week to protect my mental health. If I'm not mentally strong, there's no way possible that I can help anybody else. 

15:40 What are some things we can do to take care of ourselves and our mental health?

vitamins, in home/outside workouts, journal, balanced meals, go outside and get fresh air, stretch, meditate - take this time, because a lot of us are on the goal - take this time to relax. Build yourself a self-care routine that you can keep up with. Take some time to build some very healthy routines that can keep you going.
