Abstract
- This paper is a brief phenomenological description of the polarities and paradoxes emerging in people's day-to-day lives, within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It uses a collection of vignettes to explore the ways that people in the UK are making sense of the early stages of the COVID-19 public health measures. It concludes by suggesting there is an existential importance of working with paradox and polarities, both personally and professionally, as psychotherapists at this time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
