Abstract:
In this article, the authors, a pediatrician/child psychiatrist and two psychiatrists trained in systemic family therapies, share their reflections on the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on children and family ties. The therapists review the literature, draw upon their clinical experience during the first wave of the pandemic to suggest some guidelines for this second wave. A clinical case illustrates their practice with an example of family resilience. The importance of the healthcare network in strengthening family resilience is also highlighted.
