During these uncertain times where we are social isolated from others, it is important to know ways that you can stay connected with others. Humans thrive on connecting with one another and part of the treatment for those with depression is to have a strong support group. While we can’t meet up with one another right now- there are many avenues that can continue to keep you connected. Pick up the phone and have a conversation with someone, Facetime, Zoom, Skype- these are all great ways to see someone while talking to them, or even emailing, texting, or messaging through social media platforms.
As a therapist, I am able to help and support clients through Telehealth (video) sessions. While this is not my preferred way of meeting with clients, due to the current circumstances, I am offering it as an option at a reduced rate. If you or someone you know needs someone to listen, to support them through this difficult time; I am here for you.
If you just need some words of encouragement, please follow my Facebook page, Amanda Samuels Counseling (link at the top of the website) for messages of hope and resources/ideas to get us through this time. We are all in this together.
Stay Well!
