Important information
regarding Confluence Clinic and COVID-19 coronavirus Dear Clients and Patients of Confluence Clinic,
Although the presence of the coronavirus has ushered in a moment of great uncertainty and distress, there is also of coming together as a collective for the greater good. We are striving to be part of the solution. Towards that end, we are closing our physical space for the next two weeks. We are not "closed" but simply shifting our work to virtual spaces. Counseling sessions will be available via telephone and online, and Kjell will be available for 20-minute phone consultations. You will find a special option on Jane for those consultations. Arielle will be available during business hours via email for questions about appointments and insurance. And we are here if you are looking for support around the events that are unfolding around us. A large part of what we are dealing with right now is the lack of testing available in the United States. That is why, with the information we have, self-quarantining, both personally and as a clinical space, feels like the most responsible thing to do. Once testing becomes widespread, the situation will be more clear. Again, we are not going anywhere. We are at home, just like you, trying to understand what is happening and act accordingly. Please remember that regardless of your own fears about getting sick, self-quarantine is an act of love and solidarity for your community. Thank you for your support of our clinic as we move through this time together. Take good care, Kjell & Erin Practical Matters:
