COVID-19 & Private Practice: Free Resources to Help Therapists Manage Their Business During Coronavirus
The COVID-19 pandemic has spread around the world, destroying the economy and taking lives in its wake. If you’re like most therapists, you probably have found yourself needing to transition your entire practice to an online one as we all work together to stem the spread of this virus. We’re certainly not immune over here in the Fava household. The day I’m writing this, our county has issued a state of emergency and all non-essential businesses are closing by the hour. I just got a text from my mechanic saying they’re cutting down their hours. Sorry, Rocco! My wife and I have been working out a schedule as we watch our 3-year-old son and balance keeping our businesses moving forward as best we can. What’s been amazing though is the sense of community that has grown out of actually NOT being able to meet in person! Who would have thought? So many people have banded together to share resources and help you make some difficult transitions in order to continue providing great therapy services to your clients. Some of you may have already had a full or semi-online practice, so you may not have skipped a beat as you entered quarantine. For others, it may have been (or continues to be) a scramble. To help you out, we’ve collected many of the great resources out there to help your private practice survive the Coronavirus pandemic so that you can keep moving forward.
