The global COVID-19 pandemic has triggered a wide variety of psychological crises worldwide. In order to respond rapidly and efficiently to the complex challenges, mental health professionals are required to adopt a multidimensional and integrative view. Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) founded by Albert Ellis promotes rationality and self-acceptance. Logotherapy, pioneered by Viktor Frankl potentiates meaning and resilience. Both approaches are complementary and mutually enriching. The goal of this paper is to propose an integrative model of "optimal sense-making," a concept that combines both rationality and meaning, as well as the role of self-transcendence and healthy negative emotions. The model offers a theoretical and clinical foundation for efficient and effective psychological intervention plans for those affected by the pandemic. Along with theoretical background, illustrating case studies are presented to support potential application of the integrative model to affected individuals as well as the work of first-line health professionals during these times of pandemic. Implications are considered for utilizing theoretical and applied insights from the model to cultivate resilience in face of adversity and suffering.
全球新冠疫情在全球引发了各种各样的心理危机。为了迅速有效地应对这些复杂挑战，心理健康专业人员需要采取多维综合的视角。阿尔伯特·艾利斯创立的理性情绪行为疗法（REBT）促进理性和自我接纳。维克多·弗兰克尔开创的意义疗法增强意义感和复原力。这两种方法相辅相成、相互丰富。本文的目的是提出一个“最佳意义建构”的综合模型，该概念将理性与意义相结合，同时阐述自我超越和健康负面情绪的作用。该模型为针对受疫情影响者的高效心理干预计划提供了理论和临床基础。除了理论背景，还呈现了案例研究以支持该综合模型在受影响个体以及疫情期间一线卫生专业人员工作中的潜在应用。探讨了利用该模型的理论和应用见解来培养面对逆境和苦难时的复原力的意义。
