#53 — Nesh Nikolic on Coronavirus & How Psychology Can Respond

To my psychology friends and colleagues,

Australia is at the beginning of Coronavirus and there is an unprecedented amount of uncertainty. Job losses, industry shutdowns, potential lockdown, and the domino effect of all these leads to possibly the hardest time for many Australians.

I urge all psychologists to share the benefits of maintaining good mental health and make themselves available for support in these times.

The reality is that in the current climate, stress, anxiety and depression will increase. If you are a psychologist you can, and should, promote your service. There is mixed messaging in the media on what will and won’t shutdown, but as it stands right now psychology and all allied health businesses will remain open.

Sharing the benefits of your service right now is not selfish, it is critically important to clients in need.

Much love,

Nesh

PS. Make sure you self care, this stress can get to us too.
