Pandemic and Play Therapy with Lynn McLean

Today's podcast episode is a lesson in creativity and preparedness. It's okay to slow down, get your bearings, and help your staff rise to the occasion before adding in more clients. Once the transition has happened, then you can move into marketing and visibility. This pandemic is allowing us to rethink everything we know about therapy, and recognize myths we had never challenged before.

Lynn McLean, LCSW-S, RPT-S talks about her experience transitioning to tele-play therapy, and how children CAN be helped during this time.  Just like so many other things, we are seeing that healing play is possible virtually, and that by being forced to look at your practice in a new way, you may discover new things about your processes that will strengthen your business, too.
