    Pediatric behavioral sleep medicine in the era of telemedicine: psychology trainee perspectives
    (American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2021) McQuillan, Maureen E.; Anderson, Adrienne; Russo, Kirsten D.; Truss, Autumn; Honaker, Sarah M.; Walsh, Kate Lyn; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    The worldwide coronavirus pandemic in 2020 radically changed the landscape of psychology service provision and training, with rapid rollouts of telemedicine to promote safe access to care. In this perspective article, we share the experiences of 4 psychology trainees, all of whom worked as psychology interns or postdoctoral fellows in pediatric behavioral sleep medicine during the pandemic. With restricted in-person visits and upheaval of children's normative sleep and school schedules, we directly observed growth in both need for psychological care and opportunity to provide this care remotely. Here, we summarize the unique challenges and learning opportunities we faced when trying to learn and implement evidence-based assessment and treatment of child and adolescent sleep difficulties during the pandemic.
