23: To Whom it May Concern: Letter Writing as Therapists
from Sincerely, 2 Imperfect Therapists · host Sincerely, 2 Imperfect Therapists
Dear therapists, We have probably been asked to write letters for many things, temporary leave from a job, disability, the debatable ESA letters- the list goes on. Our clients and the world see us as a reputable source to make such determinations. Yet, there may be some things we draw the line at, perhaps things that go beyond our comfort or even competency. How do you have conversations with clients about what type of support you are able or willing to provide that is within your professional integrity? Join us as we discuss our own takes on letter writing that may be helpful, or we hope, validating as you think about this often requested and important part of our job.
