Abstract
Coronavirus has disrupted normalcy for communities and businesses across the globe. With massive shutdowns across the world, organizations were forced to assess their business operations and determine how to sustain in such turbulent times. Mental health clinics faced equivalent barriers as the structure of engaging with clients in a face to face setting was similarly disrupted. The implementation of e-mental health structures were clear targets of change as clinics needed to continue to serve the mentally fragile. Strategic planning calls for thoughtful collaboration, collection, and consideration of the necessary adaptations to meet the mission and vision of the organization. Strategic frameworks like the Value, Rarity, Imitability, and Organization are useful tools for mental health clinics to plan on shifting their operations from an in-person to a virtual environment.
