Long-term impact of coronavirus expected
Demand for mental health support has increased since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
Manx Care says it's not clear whether Coronavirus is directly responsible for the rise but the increase has been seen across the board.
The service is recruiting 10 additional therapists this year.
Ross Bailey is group manager of integrated mental health and says the pandemic is likely to have a long-term impact:
