Mental Health During COVID-19: How the Lockdown Is Affecting Therapeutic Process

The nationwide lockdown due to COVID-19 has disrupted mental healthcare services for many in need. As social distancing gets normalised, what changes can the therapeutic process be expected to undergo? What measures should therapists take while providing counseling from a distance? How can clients ensure that they are seeking legitimate psychological care? Are specific sections of the Indian community more vulnerable than others? How does pre-existing stigma surrounding mental health issues impact the community's ability to access care? How can India democratise mental health services across the board? Prithvi Iyer, Research Assistant at ORF Mumbai, in conversation with Counselor and Family Therapist Sukanya Srinivas Ananth, discusses how the pandemic has brought to fore India's underequipped mental healthcare system, the need for community-centric care and integration of mental healthcare into the primary healthcare system for maximised accessibility. #MentalHealth #COVIDAnxiety #COVID19India #PTSD #LockdownExtended #PsychologicalFirstAid #CoronaCrisis
