A couple of people I know in therapy have said their therapists have said that their supervisors have advised to delay face to face as long as possible as it is just not safe to resume. I think a lot of therapists over here seem to think that telephone and online therapy is an adequate alternative and therefore there is no urgency to get back to face to face sessions. I personally disagree.

Gosh, September is a long time. The clinic I'm at says "for the duration of lockdown" sessions will be strictly online. I really hope it changes soon. Although video sessions are better than nothing, I miss the non-verbal bond/communication we have when in person. It's simply not as rich over Zoom, so I really hope clinics will find ways to make it safe to resume in person asap.
It baffles me that it is deemed safe to open some non-essential shops and schools, but not yet safe to resume therapy.
