Surprising Intimacy in Online Therapy Sessions

June 5, 2020

While the Resident Wellness Office has always offered virtual counselling to residents who are unable to speak with one of our counsellors in person, the COVID-19 pandemic has transitioned all counselling sessions and other RWO supports online.

Lori Gottlieb, psychotherapist and journalist, shares her thoughts about how she feels closer with her patients as she has transitioned to online counselling sessions during the global pandemic.

If you would like to speak with an RWO counsellor, please visit our online booking site to schedule an appointment.
