Stress on Kids During the Pandemic
Elizabeth NGO, MMFT, LAMFT
|
| The coronavirus pandemic took the world by surprise in March 2020. It was a new journey for everyone. Parents had to wear many hats during this time – full-time parent, teacher, and employee. We had nationwide lockdowns, schools become virtual and families were home together more than before. It was also a time when we noticed children were more anxious, stressed, depressed, and socially limited. |

Online Screening |
| Everyone has days when they feel down, sad, unmotivated, or “blah”. It’s natural to have changes in mood related to life events, relationship problems or other circumstances. Brief screenings are the quickest way to determine if you or someone you care about should connect with a behavioral health professional. |
