Republish: Fran S. Waters, LMFT. Managing in The Midst of COVID-19
The world doesn’t seem to be letting up in the level of craziness we’re all experiencing. In the spirit of providing at least a tiny bit of relief and hope this week I’m republishing this series I did with these amazing guests on the topic of “Managing in The Midst of The Pandemic.
My guest today, Fran Waters is one of those therapists you wish you had: She’s funny, warm, creative and super smart.
In this interview we talk about the global impacts of trauma and how to manage during this unprecedented time, as well as explore how the trauma of this experience is impacting individuals and therapists alike.
