Teletherapy Burnout

Are you a practicing clinician who is fatigued from the number of video sessions you

have each day? Do you find yourself googling “ the effects of Zoom fatigue”? Do you miss

interacting with your client in-person, and struggle to handle anxieties produced by connectivity

issues, weak WiFi signal, or working from home? Come to RIAMFT’s open forum about

teletherapy burnout! Ironically enough, we will be gathering virtually to discuss the issues and

stresses of teletherapy!
