The pandemic made the use of technology in therapy a necessity rather than optional. Therapists and clients alike have gotten much more comfortable in this digital era, but there is still more you can do to ensure sessions are engaging and clients get the help they need.
On top of that… Clinicians are now inundated with finding ways to keep up with the changes in laws and state differences. It’s challenging to know which technology to use, what laws apply, and how to keep our practices and our clients safe.
Good News! Board-Certified Telemental Health Provider, Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider, Joni Gilbertson, MA, NCC, LMHC, BC-TMH, CTMH, has put together this bold cutting-edge training in telehealth to teach you:
