The coronavirus crisis is having a huge impact on both therapy as a profession, and therapists as individuals. Practitioners are encountering their clients’ responses to world events and the resulting uncertainty at the same time as trying to manage their own. In practical terms, recent weeks have seen a mass move online for our client work, supervision and trainings, while some are struggling with an overload and others with a sudden drop-off of clients. Therapists represent a vital national resource at a time of crisis – but what plans, if any, does the government have to use it? We’ll be joined by Sarah Niblock, Chief Executive of the UKCP, to discuss how the current pandemic may shape the future of the profession.
This online program is worth 1 hours CPD.
