| Popis: | Young adulthood is a major transition period, particularly challenging for those with mental disorders. Though the prevalence of depressive and anxiety disorders is especially high, young adults are less likely to receive mental health treatment than younger and older individuals. Reasons for this mental health treatment gap are multifold and range from individual- to system-level factors that must be taken into consideration when addressing young adult mental health needs. Studies in adults and adolescents have shown that integrated care in primary care settings is an effective model of treatment of mental disorders. After providing an overview of the mental health treatment gap in this developmental period, the argument is made for research focused on integrated care models specifically tailored for young adults that takes into consideration the various needs and challenges that they face and addresses the mental health treatment gap in young adulthood. |
