Abstract :
COVID-19 pandemic has had a tremendous impact on
people’s health conditions. Some studies show that mental
health is also affected seriously by COVID-19 (1) and associated
physical distancing measures (2). There are some
mental health challenges, such as the availability of psychopharmacological
and other treatments (3). Therefore,
we need to apply evidence-based mental health interventions
to help people deal with this pandemic situation. Fortunately,
valuable guidelines for clinicians have started to
release in this field (4).
