82. Katie Gordon, How to Effectively Help Students During the Coronavirus Pandemic

Half Hour of Heterodoxy

Katie Gordon is my guest today. Katie previously appeared on Episode 50: Can Offensive Political Speech Cause Trauma? On today’s episode, we’ll be talking about ways you can counsel and help students during the Coronavirus pandemic. We talk about what you can and cannot do, given legal and ethical guidelines around psychotherapy. We’ll also discuss resources that you and your students can use and explain what classroom practices might be most effective during the pandemic. Even though this episode is primarily for professors, it could be useful regardless of your current role. A transcript of this episode will be released shortly.
