We helped the nytimes with a feature on the fallout of the pandemic for therapists and the state of mental health in the country. Thank you to the more than 1,300 therapists in our network who participated. Read the story here:
“There is so much grief and loss,” said Anne Compagna-Doll, a clinical psychologist in Burbank, Calif. “One of my clients, who is usually patient, is experiencing road rage. Another client, who is a mom of two teens, is fearful and doesn’t want them to leave the house. My highly work-motivated client is considering leaving her career. There is an overwhelming sense of malaise and fatigue.
“The pandemic has functioned like a magnifying glass for vulnerabilities,” said Gabriela Sehinkman, a licensed clinical social worker in Shaker Heights, Ohio, who specializes in serving the Latino community. Some clinicians said waiting times for psychiatrists and practitioners who can prescribe medications had also increased.
Nearly 75 percent of respondents said much of their time was spent helping clients with family and relationship issues. Couples are arguing more and coping with the aftereffects of lockdown isolation, financial and job stress and having children in online school. “It’s pretty difficult to find a therapist who does couples work who isn’t slammed,” said Chris Davis, a marriage and family therapist in Louisville, Ky. “It feels like more couples are on the brink of separating or divorcing. They’re fighting, their communication is negative, or it seems they’re just apathetic.”
