"It’s not the pandemic in itself that has a direct causal link to the increase in mental health problems, but the pandemic has changed our day to day life.” – Melissa Nobile, psychologist MSc. 

A new survey released by UK children’s charity the NSPCC has revealed a troubling increase in mental health concerns in young people, with counselling sessions for eating and body image disorders skyrocketing. 

In the latest podcast from The Kusnacht Practice, Global Sales and Marketing Director Philippe Rovere talks with Melissa Nobile - psychologist MSc - about  the effects of the pandemic on the mental health of young people. 

Melissa discusses the ‘mediating factors’ that have led to the development of mental health issues, and the value of communication and creativity in providing a solution.

She addresses the prevalence and severity of eating and body image disorders, underlining the importance of early intervention. As well as the significance of the NSPCC’s Childline  service ‘Nobody is Normal’ campaign and the positive message it conveys.
