Holiday gift ideas for your colleagues and other therapists in your life

This holiday season looks very different this year with fewer and smaller holiday gatherings. That doesn’t mean you can’t give thoughtful gifts to those you care about. In this post, we’re listing some of our favorite gifts to give to your colleagues and other therapists in your life.

A deck of cards to improve communication

We could all use a little help when it comes to strengthening our communication skills. Hushmail partner Rob Reinhardt, LPCS, created the therapist aid Describe Cards to help clients of all ages better communicate their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

It starts with the first deck of 106 cards. Each card has an adjective and three conversation prompting questions. The cards help break the ice and get people talking. While facilitating a great time, Describe eases the process of communicating challenging content. 

Describe has grown to include a second deck, a dry erase activity board, and dozens of activities and games for all ages. Describe – All The Things includes all products in a gift box.

Describe Cards - starting at $19.99

A step-by-step guide to conducting a risk assessment

Give the gift of peace of mind. Therapists spent the summer getting their practices to run smoothly online during the pandemic. Now that they’re up and running, it’s a good idea to conduct a thorough risk assessment to make sure everything is secure. 

Conducting a risk assessment might sound intimidating, but anyone can do it quickly and effectively with a little guidance. To understand more about what it means to conduct a risk assessment, read our recent blog post Is your new virtual practice secure? Conduct a risk assessment. 

We’ve made the process as easy as possible with a step-by-step guide you can download to give to anyone you feel could use the gift of a little extra peace of mind.

A complete intake form  

Web forms go a long way toward making a practice more efficient and secure. A secure contact form can help find best-fit clients, a COVID-19 screening questionnaire can help you keep a practice safe, and a client experience survey can help a practice gauge its effectiveness. Our web forms are extremely versatile and can be created to serve multiple purposes while keeping clients’ information safe and secure. 

Our web form builder is easy to use, but sometimes there just aren’t enough hours in the day. Do you know a therapist who’s too busy to build their web forms? Is that person you? Hushmail has a web form building service that can help. 

Give the gift of custom web forms that are ready to go. Contact Customer Care and tell them who you’d like to help out, and we’ll apply a $50 credit toward web form building to their account. This is usually enough to build one 1-2 page form. You can give this gift to yourself too!
