NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As the world grapples with an unprecedented health crisis, experts and everyday people are being forced to confront the mental health ramifications of COVID-19. The first season of In Practice, a new multi-part narrative podcast series hosted by David Condos, is devoted to unravelling the pandemic's mental health impact with some of the world's leading experts in psychology, neuroscience, public health, trauma, and recovery. The premiere episode will debut on August 13.

The coronavirus pandemic is more than a story about a severe acute respiratory syndrome. It's a story about us and the ways this global event is changing our minds, our relationships, and our communities. Between the threat of the virus, economic hardships, isolation from loved ones, and the uncertainty of what comes next, people everywhere are facing new levels of stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns.

As this pandemic reaches into every area of our lives, In Practice is facilitating conversations with mental health experts about how crises affect our minds and what we can do to care for ourselves and others. "I've been blown away by the all the guests I've had the honor to interview for In Practice," says host David Condos, "and I'm excited to share their insights with listeners during this challenging time."
