Curing Our Mental Health Crisis

2/27/2022

0 Comments

 
I ran across this interesting article this week.  The former director of the National Institute for Mental Health, Dr. Thomas Insel, discusses how solving America's high prevalence of mental health disorders takes more than neuroscience and therapy techniques.  He points to an effective approach that has actually been around for a number of years but has not caught traction until recently: encouraging doctors, therapists, other professions and family members to work as a team supporting the patient in their mental health treatment and recovery.  This concept informs new strategies being implemented in the field such as "Wraparound Services."  The key to helping someone suffering from mental health disorders is helping that person find connection and support.  Read the full about Dr. Insel here:
