People can gather and mobilize their own inner resources, when they have the opportunity to talk to an understanding professional who can provide them with support, acceptance, and a listening ear.
An effective approach to counseling and therapy always includes this empathy and understanding, whatever theoretical approach the therapist uses.
The helping relationship is the basic foundation of counseling and therapy.
There is no magic technique that works for all people.
The helping process begins with building a comfortable working relationship and helping people to feel heard and understood, while they have the opportunity to talk things out.

For the duration of the public health emergency, (currently extended until the end of 2021), DOT will not penalize SAPs for conducting remote evaluations.
The decision about this is left up to the SAP.
I have given this issue serious consideration and have decided that I am not in a position to provide in-;person evaluations yet.
Therefore, for DOT (including Federal Railroad Administration, Federal Transit Administration, and Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration) regulated employees, all services are being provided via tele-health until further notice.
