 <\/p>\n

I’m going to hazard a guess that we’ll all be spending a little more time online over the next few weeks\/months: study, work, entertainment, socialising, health appointments, Coronavirus news.<\/p>\n

Why not then use the online medium to work on our mental health?<\/p>\n

I’ve said for a while that Australia has an excellent selection of online mental health-related services and programs. Whether anyone has been listening is another question altogether!<\/p>\n

The team at eMHPrac (from whom I get my guidance on online programs) have published a new fact sheet<\/a> outlining the online services and programs and links that might be specifically beneficial for those feeling the mental crunch of social isolation and frequent hand sanitising.<\/p>\n

If you, like the technology dextrous individual in the picture below can juggle multiple devices and screens at the same time but are feeling a little out of sorts, maybe an online mental health resource is for you.<\/p>\n

Some are just information. Others are full-blown clinical services.<\/p>\n
