A standard narrative review was followed for identifying, screening and selecting the studies for revealing the results. The review included 6 studies out of 193, published between 2005 and 2024. The critical quality appraisal checklist and thematic analysis were employed in the review. The study characteristics found that the majority of the included studies are from the Southern part of India, community-based studies, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as the most common psychiatric disorder. The key themes identified were psychosocial issues and associated factors, psychosocial interventions, effectiveness and contextual relevance of psychosocial support. The study concludes that there is a need for gender-inclusivity and effective long-term interventions for disaster-affected women in India.
