Changes In Psychotherapy’s Focus Because Of Covid.

Roz Malmaud, PhD, and Andy Rosen, PhD, note that patients are now focusing more on the pre-Covid, usual problems. Both discuss, however, issues with telemedicine’s legal and insurance matters, being unable to give patients questionnaires to complete or handouts for them to use, to see how they interact in the waiting rooms, the real paradigm shifts away from traditional therapy arrangements and schedules, and of how patients must learn how to tolerate social uncertainty, etc. The need for telemedicine during the pandemic brought many therapeutic methods to new notions that need refinement and integration insofar as to how we now communicate and interact. The tools are different.
