And even then it would be a conversation to have and work out between us rather than an outright decision made solely by the therapist.

Are you both vaccinated?

So, kind of option 3, except I was given a choice instead of automatically switching to virtual. I still voted for option 3.

Do you know how soon he was tested after feeling symptoms?

Have you asked her why she isn’t vaccinated?

I just got my booster shot and my flu shot today about two hours ago.

Oh my gosh I am so sorry! So sorry! I was genuinely curious I was not looking to debate, or hijack anybody’s thread. I did not mean to offend you or anybody. Of course it’s you are business you don’t have to say anything to me or anybody that you don’t want to share it with. It’s just such a common thing that I ask in at my outreach job I didn’t think twice about it. I really don’t understand exactly why you were upset with me because I certainly wasn’t trying to start any trouble. My apologies though.What is your therapist's COVID-19 policy for sessions?
