We're all impacted by COVID-19 in our daily lives in some ways that we may not recognize. This presentation will address the specifics about where we are on a larger scale with our behavioral health responses in the context of the pandemic as a natural disaster and how our brains and bodies function accordingly at home and in the workplace. We will discuss:

  • common neurological and physical responses at the current phase of the disaster response and recovery cycle
  • common symptoms and experiences
  • challenges over the next few months
  • and what can be done to prevent burnout and increase resilience factors

Specific ideas will be provided about how to communicate and interact more effectively with others in the context of COVID-19, and increase our own sense of strength and resilience.

Presenter: Dr. Kira Mauseth, Co-Lead for Behavioral Health Strike Team, Washington State Department of Health, Senior Instructor at Seattle University and practicing clinical psychologist at Snohomish Psychology Associates
