Published in: Gender, work, and organization (2020)
When women, girls and gender-diverse people - who have been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak since the public health crisis has also become a crisis for feminism - will identify and acknowledge their organismic phenomenological self, wholeness and growth will be fully functioning. Psychological aspects for the public health emergency operated through counselling psychologists to manage mental health, emotional, psychological, cognitive, behavioural, relational and social impacts are fundamental. And the role of counselling psychologists in maintaining personal mental health and their clients is a crucial indicator of collective wellbeing. This perspective is embedded in the gendered approach and feminist framework which attempts to explore and offer the embodied intersectional and divergent impact on living during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.
