Atypical jobs in psychology: Interview of Dr. Donna Rasin-Waters.

This article provides an overview of Dr. Donna Rasin-Waters' career path and experiences providing telehealth at the Brooklyn Campus of the Veterans Affairs New York Harbor Healthcare Systems. Dr. Rasin-Waters, a psychologist and neuropsychologist with a specialty in geropsychology, began working toward the provision of evidence-based therapy via telehealth for Veterans in 2010. She believed that, in addition to rural communities, telehealth held utility for Veterans in densely populated areas, particularly for elderly adults with limited means for transportation. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Rasin-Waters has seen a rapid boom in the use of telehealth for a variety of clinical activities with Veterans. This has further brought to light promising implications for the provision of remote mental health services, as well as important telehealth training and cultural considerations for clinicians.
