126 5.01% of the population in the European Union [6]. Now, the prevalence of depression is only increasing because "poor mental health in Ukraine is tightly interconnected with poverty, unemployment, and feelings of insecurity, compounded by the effects of the conflict" [6]. A significant portion of psychological issues during this period was related to forced emigration. Previously, this topic was hardly considered, but now we are working on approaches to understand the dynamics of forced emigration and adaptation to it, as well as practical techniques for working with such clients. There was a dramatic change in requests for working with children. Adolescents found it difficult to adapt to the freedom restrictions caused by the war. Parents often changed their place of residence or lifestyle, without consulting their children or giving them a chance to influence decisions. Also, we observed a new generation of children focused on survival, seemingly unafraid of the war, but behind this optimism is their belief that a large group of people (enemies) is trying to kill them now and will continue to do so in the future. By the end of the second year of the war, the country had lost many lives, many cities were destroyed, almost everyone's living standards declined (even in cities without military actions), millions of citizens left the country, and millions moved to other areas. The vortex of war was pulling in more people and consuming more resources, leading to exhaustion. As we enter this phase of work, we are still in the process of analyzing the situation and developing our techniques and skills. The article "Professional Supervision as Therapists Self-care during Wartime" describes the situation of supervision as “a radical shift in the format, process, and content of psychoanalytic supervision groups in Ukraine following the Russian invasion” [7]. The same is evident in the process of clinical supervision overall. Ukrainian colleagues are actively working on new approaches to wartime supervision. In "Rising Above the Battle Scars: Integrating Trauma-Focused Concepts into Clinical Supervision Using the Discrimination Model in Ukraine," a new supervision model is proposed, combining Bernard’s Discrimination Model with trauma-informed care for immediate and long-term crisis situations [8]. 6. CONCLUSION Some practical recommendations for wartime supervisors include restructuring the work from post-traumatic disorder to work with acute trauma; establishing self-support strategies and resource finding for supervisors and psychologists; and developing resilience and creativity for survival rather than personal growth. I hope that together with colleagues we will find ways to better navigate the ordeal of war.
