May 2023 COVID Update ****​

​

• As we come to the end of the Public Health Emergency, in-person sessions are available in both Mammoth and Bishop offices. Teletherapy is recommended if there is a COVID surge in the community. 
   

• Because I am frequently spending extended periods of time helping my elderly parents in southern CA, in-person clients should consider teletherapy or wearing a mask if you have a high risk of exposure to COVID19. This is to help reduce my risk of exposure and spreading that risk to my parents. Consider taking precautions if any of the following apply to you: 

  • attending gatherings with unvaccinated people, particularly unvaccinated people from multiple households and indoor gatherings;

  • recent exposure to people showing COVID or flu-like symptoms; 

  • attending medium or large gatherings regardless of vaccination status;

  • travel on public transit such as airplanes, trains, cruise ships, and buses. Please see CDC guidelines here.
     

• Teletherapy is available to all patients through my HIPAA compliant telemedicine platform Doxy.me.
   

• Teletherapy must be used if you or I have any symptoms of illness or a fever, if you or I have been possibly exposed to the virus through travel or visiting people who may have been lax in physical distancing or mask-wearing, or any other factors that may put you or I at risk of being an a-symptomatic spreader.
   

• Do not arrive more than 5 minutes ahead of your appointment to minimize the number of people in the waiting area.
