Talanoa: Mental health and the impact of Covid

Dr Jemaima Tiatia-Seath on mental health in Covid

It’s Mental Health Awareness Week and quite timely. A lot of people are just coping, with Covid restricting many Aucklanders from getting out and school holidays looming next week — meaning more of the same, with kids stuck home as well as other pressures for families. Marama T-Pole spoke with Dr Jemaima Tiatia-Seath about the impact of Covid on our mental health and what you can do to make things easier.
