The use of internet-connected tools is easy for kids. Most children are used to gaming, and since the first lockdowns, they have also become accustomed to internet schooling.<\/p><p>Children feel comfortable with the security of their own home, which helps them better connect and process the therapy.<\/p><p>The feeling of security and safety is essential to the therapy\u2019s efficiency.<\/p><h2>Do you offer in-person appointments?<\/h2><p>Yes. In-person sessions are limited to two people per day.<\/p><h2>What safety precautions are you taking in the office?<\/h2><p>I take the following safety precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19:<\/p><ul><li>Receiving only two clients a day in person<\/li><li>Suspending the waiting room where viruses or bacteria could spread<\/li><li>Keeping at least a 1.5-meter distance in my practice room<\/li><li>The use of a medical mask is mandatory in the city center of Nice, where my office is located.<\/li><\/ul><h2>Do you offer group therapy?<\/h2><p>Small supervision groups (not more than four therapists) can still take place once a month in my office.<\/p><p>Qi Gong and therapist training are available in small groups of four.<\/p><h2>Do you offer retreats?<\/h2><p>I offer one-on-one personal retreats for people wanting to go deep in their therapy process.<\/p><p>I also provide one-to-one supervision retreats for therapists who want to recover from burnout or integrate new directions into their therapy style.<\/p><h2>What online courses are available?<\/h2><p>I develop online courses for several universities in Germany. Online courses for self-regulation and self-knowledge are available at any time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How does online therapy for children work?
