- Synopsis
- This book is one of the first systematic examinations on the looming mental health crisis emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic from a psychoanalytic perspective. Bringing together practising therapists from Asia and Europe, this book: • analyses themes like anxiety, depression, sexuality, loss and death through clinical vignettes • highlights how children, adolescents and adults have been responding to the pandemic • explores how personal and collective trauma are mourned, remembered, repeated and worked through • studies deep-seated prejudices and fears • focuses on how the pandemic has stimulated exceptional manifestations of human solidarity and creativity Comprehensive and practical, this book will be an essential guide for mental health professionals, counsellors, therapists and medical doctors treating psychological trauma.
