Since early May 2022, Ruth Katz Social Worker has been seeing clients face-to-face while still observing all the COVID-19 protocols.

Ruth Katz Consulting Social Worker is still seeing clients on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Skype and welcomes inquiries about her services.

When prospective clients inquire about my services, I ask them what is bothering them the most - then give them free information about their main concerns, or give them a link to my booking platform if they would like to come for a consultation.

If their inquiry falls outside my area of expertise which is mental health; I refer the prospective clients to colleagues who are knowledgeable in that area.

Several recommendations are available on my booking platform; Recomed, and on social networks Linkedin, for prospective clients to review as I don't expect people to book an appointment without checking out my specialities, credentials and what other clients have said about me.
