and let’s be real, psychology and the entire mental health sector remain some of the most chronically underfunded areas in the philippines. facilities are far too scarce, often inaccessible to those who need them most, and the few that do exist are under-resourced and overburdened. mental health workers are stretched thin and services remain a privilege rather than a right. dito sa cebu, for instance, the city health department’s mental health unit has been calling for increased funding just to keep up with the rising number of walk in patients. they lack enough counseling rooms and trained mental health professionals because the demand for psychological support has far outpaced the resources available.
