I don't like the zoom sessions, but find it the best of a bad bunch of options in this particular circumstance. T is new to online sessions too so there is adjusting to do on both ends. I went into the first session with the expectation that it would be weird and likely not very connected. That was true, and we ended early. I was okay with that, there was nothing more I wanted for the session.
Going forward I know it isn't going to be the same as face to face therapy - it just can't be. But I hope to be able to keep the connection between us and keep up the momentum on some important work we were doing leading up to this.
The whole situation sucks. But so does COVID-19. There isn't any other way through this than through it.
