Psychological Impact of Corona Virus Covid 19
As the world goes through this challenging time and we are all playing our part in trying to minimise the impact of the virus it is important to acknowledge the psychological impact of the situation. It is natural that all of us will have a range of emotions including spells of anxiety and perhaps low mood. Fortunately there is lots of advice on line and in the media to help us cope. Here are a few of many links which may be of benefit:

Impact on Existing Mental Health Difficulties
For those of us who have already been experiencing psychological or emotional difficulties unrelated to corona virus, or those who are experiencing an exacerbation or relapse of existing mental health difficulties, it may be important to consider if psychological therapy could be helpful. If you would like to discuss this with me confidentially in a brief, up to 15 minute, telephone conversation, I'd be happy to hear from you.
