Mental illness is 'likely to be accentuated' by Covid-19, says Christian psychiatrist
One of the UK's most distinguished psychiatrists has welcomed the advent of online psychotherapy as a potential life saver. David Enoch, who has 65 years of active clinical practice under his belt, has worked hard over the years to present a credible and attractive Christian voice within his profession, authoring such acclaimed works as Healing the Hurt Mind, I Want a Christian Psychiatrist and the foundational Uncommon Psychiatric Syndromes (the 5th edition of which is due for publication in January 2021).
I spoke to my good friend David following the publication of his blog last month, 'Online psychotherapy for the COVID era: digital healthcare with insights from Auschwitz?', on the Mental Elf website, which exists to "facilitate a democratic conversation between patients, clinicians, researchers, carers, policy makers, health and social care professionals and others."
