How to Help Your Employees’ Psychological Health as They Continue to Navigate the Pandemic

September 8, 2021 By Dr. Jennifer Contarino Panning Leave a Comment

employee psychological health

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a negative toll on mental health…many studies have shown the negative impact with increased depression and anxiety symptoms and as a result, Americans seeking mental health services in large numbers.

A primary task of an emotionally attuned leader is to create a psychologically safe and caring environment — especially during times of upheaval and transition. When faced with transition and change, humans tend to react with anxiety and uncertainty.

In an article for Medium — How to Help Your Employees’ Psychological Health as They Continue to Navigate the Pandemic — Dr. Jennifer Contarino Panning discusses the best practices that leaders can implement during this time of uncertainty including acknowledging the weird, practicing being vulnerable, validating emotions, and creating a feedback loop to help navigate ongoing change.

Mental health support isn’t just about therapy, Mental health support isn’t just about therapy, medication, teaching coping skills, or processing past trauma. We are committed to understanding how sociopolitical issues impact our mental health and the repeal of Roe vs Wade has us very concerned about the negative impact on women’s mental health. MPA Founder Jennifer Panning PsyD will be writing more about this issue in the near future. It is very difficult  to have good mental health when there are so many destabilizing factors in our society—we’ve seen the traumatic impact of the pandemic and impending fascism. We are committed to helping decrease anxiety, depression, and trauma…Let’s figure out a way to mobilize together to best navigate what may be another example of women being disrespected and disempowered.  #mindfulpsychologyevanston #mindfulpsychologyassociates #evanston #abortionishealthcare #abortionisawomansright #psychology #trauma #chicagotherapist #psychologistsofinstagram #anxiety #depression
Great news for #evanston! Thanks to city council a Great news for #evanston! Thanks to city council and Mayor Biss for approving funding to build a mental health “Living Room” resource center as an alternative to emergency rooms when people are experiencing a psychiatric crisis and need supportive services. This will be a valuable addition to the community to address mental health needs.

Thanks @newyorkercartoons for summing up current r Thanks @newyorkercartoons for summing up current reactions and feelings about the #covid_19 #pandemic…lots of talk in therapy sessions about how to cope with the roller coaster of emotions surrounding the pandemic as well as other major sociopolitical stressors…we stand consistent with recommending minimizing media consumption, finding ways to access joy and creativity, and noticing what is in and out of our control.
