MENTAL HEALTH
COVID-19 threatens not only our physical health but our mental health. From the fear of getting the virus, to the economic consequences of layoffs, to the lack of physical contact with our friends and family due to social distancing, this virus is taking a toll on ALL of us. Luckily, mental health providers in Denver and across the state are offering virtual therapy so you can get treatment from home. Text and chat lines are also available. Please consider your mental health at this scary time, and reach out to those around you.
