Maintaining Emotional Wellness Through Telemental Health and Community Support While Social Distancing During COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the delivery of mental and emotional health care. In addition, there is increasing evidence of a sudden need for mental and behavioral health care because of the pandemic. As a result, there has been a quick expansion of telemental health where counseling and support are offered online or over the phone. Jennifer Blewett, DSW, LICSW, will provide an overview of telemental health services. She will also discuss how virtual services are safe, effective, and have similar outcomes compared to in-person services.
