Relucent Psychology Group

Uplift Psychology Group is offering an online presentation to companies on the topic of Parental Mental Health in the Covid-19 Pandemic. Please see the description below and feel free to reach out with any questions!

Parenting during the COVID-19 pandemic has brought up new and increased sources of stress. Balancing one’s work duties with one’s parental duties has become a greater challenge especially as we consider the impact that these unpredictable and ever-shifting changes have on mental health. This presentation seeks to explore ways parents can understand and pay attention to their own mental health in order to feel more empowered and prepared in achieving work-life balance. In one-hour, we will explain the symptoms of common mental health conditions, strategies for dealing with the stress of the pandemic, and overview resources available to you.

We often put the pressure on those struggling with their mental health to reach out, but this can be incredibly difficult for them. If you notice that someone you care about is struggling, be there for them.

In addition to its staggering impact on physical well-being and mortality, COVID-19 is also taking an unprecedented toll on our mental health. Numerous recent studies have shown global increases in the prevalence and severity of depression and anxiety as well as increases in post-traumatic stress disorder and substance abuse.
