It’s the never ending cycle of wanting to help people while trying to figure out who will pay for it, she said.
The financial concerns are just one part of a constantly turning wheel of what therapists and counselors are working with as they try to maintain the same standard of care while adapting to a new normal. It’s been a significant challenge to navigate self-care while helping others, Henderson said. In normal circumstances, Poon would be able to rely on referrals to bolster his new practice, but it seems financial strains have limited those who might seek out therapy or pushed therapists to do everything to hold on to their own clients, he said. Poon has been trying to reach out to potential clients in new ways, testing how young people engage with, in addition to holding his normal sessions through telehealth platforms.
Working through anxieties and fears of other people means mental health professionals are consistently being exposed to the collective trauma of the pandemic, said Munib Raad, founder of Grounded Talk Therapy in New York City. There’s a certain pressure that comes when people are seeking care during a crisis because the need for consistent mental health care in order to build coping mechanisms is rarely acknowledged during normal times, Raad said.
