I thank the Senator for raising the matter and she is correct. Where the therapist has built up a relationship with a young person, it is very easy to continue in the virtual environment, although it does not work for everybody. We are trying our best to get back to face-to-face therapy and we must do that. We must learn to live alongside Covid-19. I will take on board the Senator's comments and I am sure the HSE has listened to them as well.
