Some people find it more convent and are comfortable with the experience.
Other folks, not so much.

  • The State of Hawaii is responding to a pandemic of respiratory disease spreading from person to person caused by a novel (new) coronavirus. The disease has been named ”coronavirus disease 2019” (abbreviated “COVID-19"). This situation poses a serious public health risk. COVID-19 can cause mild to severe illness and death, particularly for people of any age with serious underlying medical problems.

    I am employing several measures to minimize the spread of COVID-19. These include, for example, social distancing, hand hygiene, clinical screening, personal protective equipment, and restricting persons with illnesses or active positive test results from entering the office. I will continue to offer the option of tele-psychology sessions.

    By signing this acknowledgement and consent, you acknowledge and accept the risks, benefits, consequences, and repercussions that could result from an incidental and unintentional exposure to COVID-19 during any in-person meetings, and that you have read the information in this document and agree to abide by its terms during our professional relationship.
