It’s normal to feel a lot of anxiety around health, illness, your own safety and security, and the safety and security of your loved ones. So normal, that many therapists specialize in helping people manage their fears and work through the “what ifs”. With the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), these anxieties and the need for support, particularly from a mental health professional, are likely more intensified. We at Mental Health Match are committed to making therapy safer and more accessible, and we understand that remote therapy is a crucial resource for many folks — including those practicing social distancing. 66 5

Self care doesn't have to look like a day at the spa or a bubble bath. Self care can be as simple as giving ourselves permission to honor our needs. So many of us — especially women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ folks — have taught ourselves (or been trained by society/past experiences/relationships) to ignore our own instincts and bodily cues. This month, we're challenging our community to put our mental health first by working towards unlearning these habits. What will you give yourself permission to do? 66 2
Technology for the win! You have the power to choose between online or in-person sessions (or even a combination of both). So, which is most ideal for your unique needs? 23 1
