“I feel like our services are needed now more than ever,' says one therapist, who is gradually shifting to telemedicine.
As spread of the coronavirus pandemic shutters businesses and puts more people out of work daily, there is at least one field of work that appears to be thriving right now: psychotherapy.
It’s one of several HIPAA Law compliant platforms available to therapists — meaning that it’s a communication channel that allows only authorized users, is secure and has a specific system of monitoring in place “to prevent accidental or malicious breaches.” While old-fashioned phone sessions can seem a lot easier than what’s required for “telemental health,” Alvord notes, they are often not reimbursable by insurance. There are nuanced sacrifices of human connection, too, she says, adding, “On the phone you don’t have those nonverbals that you can see in video.
And because the area’s biggest employer is its hospital, she adds, “I see a lot of healthcare workers who are super stressed out. That’s been a big thing — talking to them about their worries about their own health, about bringing the virus home to people.”
