Current Clinical/Counseling PhD Students and COVID

[readyset123]

Hi all, I'm currently in a clinical/counseling phd and as our program has been navigating the transition to teletherapy, I've been wondering how other programs/externships are handling it and if there are any commonalities among programs in the way they are implementing virtual therapy. I think my program needs to be more inclusive in the patients and students they allow to engage in teletherapy so wondering if that is the case in other programs as well. 

So if you don't mind sharing, would you mind posting:

1. What year you are in the program? and if comfortable, what state your program is in (since there can be different state regulations).
2. Are you a student therapist at your university clinic? community clinic? externship site? etc.
3. Are you able to do teletherapy with your patients?
4. Are you able to do new intakes virtually?
5. What does your child/adolescent work look like now?
6. Have there been any new rules about who can/cannot be seen and/or which students can/cannot provide teletherapy? (i.e. not seeing children under 12, 1st and 2nd years not allowed to do teletherapy, etc.)

Thanks so much!!
