**Adam Stacoviak:** I don't know about you, but my whole entire spectrum of everything right now is colored by Coronavirus. Everything that's happening, all the change that's taking place... My bubble, and everyone that I speak with - it's the only topic on mind. What about you?
**Mireille B. Reece, Psy.D:** Yeah, most certainly. I feel as though it is simply this perpetual change that's just all-encompassing. It's been quite the whirlwind with making adjustments, both at home and with my kids out of school, and work, and being in the helping profession and interfacing with people... Especiall...
**Adam Stacoviak:** Yeah. What's even more interesting to me is that for so many the new normal is working from home... But not for everybody. There's been a large population that has already been working from home. I'm one of them. So for me, aside from a few things, not much has changed in terms of work, and life, an...
Obviously, my wife and my kids are at home with me all day. I work from home, I have a home studio... The thing that's really changed is they don't leave. My son used to go to pre-school; they would go and do activities... So they were home like 70% of the time, versus 100%. And that's the difference, is just that they...
**Mireille B. Reece, Psy.D:** Right?! Well, I think we can't help but look at the way in which this experience with Coronavirus is changing how we interface with one another... And yeah, we've had a number of different shifts. I was mainly live, face-to-face with patients, and kids in school, and husband working, which...
**Adam Stacoviak:** \[04:09\] Which is way different for someone like you.
**Mireille B. Reece, Psy.D:** It is. So with that, it's involved a steep learning curve over "How do I function within the constraints of state and federal laws?" Because I care about people, and of all times that I think people need support, this is one of them.
**Adam Stacoviak:** Yeah, for sure.
**Mireille B. Reece, Psy.D:** But I am beyond grateful for these changes, because there have been a number of different constraints for years, which has made it more challenging for people to receive psychological services from remote locations. So the fact that this whole experience has opened up that door and that I'...
**Adam Stacoviak:** And one of the biggest challenges there for you and them is this missing data component. We've talked about this before. This idea that if you're not face-to-face, you can't see body language etc. You're missing some data, just to sort of have a full picture of someone's state. So this is a new norm...
**Mireille B. Reece, Psy.D:** Yeah. And we've talked about the value and importance of resiliency, with figuring out how to get back up and how to continue to navigate things when obstacles emerge... So one of the things that I think is incredibly important is looking at "How do we simply make modifications around the ...
But it's interesting, because technology isn't all the same in terms of its stability. If somebody's live in front of you, you don't have hiccups in terms of Wi-Fi signals, or delayed with words... So it just creates other nuances to some of those social exchanges, which is interesting.
