Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs) have been integrating technology into psychotherapy practice for at least two decades, but the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically shifted the primary method of service delivery for diagnostic assessment and therapy to telebehavioral health. By developing telebehavioral health competencies, the 250,000 + LCSWs in the US can ensure and enhance the quality of care both during and after the COVID public health emergency (PHE). This article applies an evidence- and consensus-based, interprofessional telebehavioral health (TBH) competency framework to the field of social work.

The reaction of nickel, cobalt, and manganese with 1,2-ethylenediphosphonic acid or 1,2-ethylenediphosphonic acid and 1,10-phenanthroline under hydrothermal conditions resulted in the pillared layered structures Co2(H2O)2(O3PC2H4PO3) (I) and Ni2(H2O)2(O3PC2H4PO3) (II), which are isostructural to a zinc phase that has previously been characterized by X-ray powder methods. In addition, a 1D chain structure, Mn(HO3P(CH2)2PO3H)(H2O)2(C12H8N2) (III), and a pillared layered structure, Mn(HO3P(CH2)2PO3H) (IV), were obtained. The structures of these phases were solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.
