117. Dr. Michelle Chung, Acknowledging and Healing Our Pandemic Trauma

Made Visible

We’re 3+ years into the COVID-19 pandemic and it’s impossible to deny that life still doesn't feel quite the same as pre-pandemic. We’re all saddled with the trauma of a life-threatening illness, the isolation and fear we experienced. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, clinical psychologist Dr. Michelle Chung helps us navigate this new world in a healthier way. In this episode, Dr. Chung discusses the many hidden traumas people incurred during the pandemic, including losing relationships, worsened social skills, and of course, the long-term effects of all the stress and emotions. She shares some of the coping strategies she uses with her patients, as well as some great advice for processing trauma and stress in other parts of life.
