COVID-Related Guidance
Lieber Recovery Clinic
The Lieber Clinic continues to provide care, community, and education during the Corona Virus (Covid-19) outbreak. We know that the current global situation can invoke anxiety, and precautions meant to reduce risk of infection spread can increase social isolation. Now, more than ever, it is imperative that people find ways to stay connected to one another, and have mental health support. Further, it is our goal to minimize disruption to ongoing services to our current clients. We will continue to facilitate these goals in accordance with guidance from health officials and policies of Columbia University with whom we are affiliated> At present, we are provided clinical services in-person and via virtual/telehealth sessions. In person sessions require both therapists and participants be masked.
