Following consultation with Dr. Robert Strang, Chief Medical Officer of Health, the Nova Scotia College of Counselling Therapists (NSCCT) released a document on re-opening guidelines for Counselling Therapists in community or private practice. NSCCT has provided the following primary guideline:
“Except where it is clinically inappropriate, NSCCT strongly recommends members continue providing counselling services virtually or by telephone (“e-counselling”), rather than in person.”
The complete set of guidelines is available on the NSCCT website and can be viewed by clicking here.
Sarah Hopkins Counselling will continue offering telephonic services for Individual Counselling and Vocational services. Please review the Services section of the website for further details, or contact us via phone or email to schedule an appointment.
