“…Mental health professionals often seek to help clients develop and enhance adaptive coping skills in dealing with disasters (Moh & Sperandio, 2020; Pau et al, 2020). Our findings showed that whereas disengagement coping strategies have detrimental effects on one’s emotional state, the effectiveness of engagement coping and support-seeking strategies could not be conclusively determined.…”

The present study investigates the role of two risk factors (exposure to continuous traumatic stress and unemployment) and two psychological stress-related factors (resilience and coping) on individuals’ emotional state during the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak. The data were collected using online questionnaire from 778 individuals in April 2020 during Israel’s first lockdown. Israeli citizens who had been exposed for many years to recurrent missile attacks (n = 379) reported higher rates of anxiety and stress following the COVID-19 lockdown and lower rates of resilience, compared with those residing in regions not exposed to missile attacks. During the lockdown, unemployed participants (n = 416), in comparison with working respondents, reported more depression and stress, lower resilience, and greater use of behavioral and mental disengagement coping strategies. The results showed that resilience (β = −.38, p < .001) is associated with lower depression, anxiety, and stress, whereas the more frequent use of disengagement coping (β = .31, p < .001) is associated with higher depression, anxiety, and stress. Furthermore, resilience was shown to moderate the association between disengagement coping and emotional state. Findings suggest that exposure to continuous traumatic stress and unemployment may comprise potential risk factors for psychological difficulties during COVID-19 lockdown, whereas resilience and applying less disengagement coping can be considered protective factors.

“…Many students may not be able to deal with the trauma of being Corona Virus positive or having spent time in quarantine or isolation centres. According toPau et al, (2020) trauma is much more difficult to define as the term has often been used to describe almost any stressor experienced by an individual. At the most basic level, trauma refers to the emotional response an individual has to an event that was perceived to be physically or emotionally harmful.…”

The departure from traditional family structure and the evolving social trends with a breakdown in the customary support system has created a gap for fulfilling the physical, psychological and social needs of the children. The emphasis is on the need for an alternative support system to mediate the needs of them and counselling in schools is definitely the bridge that fills this gap. There is no doubt that COVID-19 pandemic and associated socio-economic factors have heightened the need for counselors in schools. This study investigates the views of school administrators, principals, head teachers and classroom teachers regarding counselling in schools. A survey research design was implemented and a survey was executed to 100 participants in the western division. 78 of them responded by returning the completed survey giving a response rate of 78%, which is acceptable for discussion. Findings reveal that Fiji has seen an increase in counselling needs after COVID-19 and subsequent lockdowns. Findings also reveal that school leaders and teachers are looking forward to a counselling program that prepares counsellors who can assist students suffering from short-term and long-term psychological effects of the pandemic and prepare students for the ‘new norm’. Majority of the participants indicated that counseling skills are indispensable manifestations considering the current unprecedented epidemiological environment.
