Book Description
Selon une idée fausse et néanmoins très répandue, l'amélioration de la santé mentale nécessiterait des technologies très élaborées et coûteuses et du personnel hautement spécialisé. En réalité, la plupart des pathologies mentales, neurologiques ou liées à l'utilisation de substances psychoactives responsables d'une morbidité et d'une mortalité importantes peuvent être prises en charge par des prestataires de soins de santé non spécialisés. Ce qu'il convient de faire est donc d'accroître la capacité des systèmes de soins de santé primaires à délivrer des modules de soins intégrés, par le biais de formations, d'un soutien ou d'une supervision. Ce guide est un outil technique pour la mise en oeuvre du Programme d action mhGAP. Il a été élaboré à partir d'une revue systématique des éléments d'appréciation, suivie d'une consultation internationale et d'un processus participatif. Il fournit une série complète de recommandations pour faciliter la délivrance de soins de haute qualité dans le cadre des établissements de premier et de deuxième niveau, par des prestataires de soins de santé non spécialisés, dans les pays disposant de peu de ressources. Il présente la prise en charge intégrée des pathologies prioritaires à l'aide de protocoles de prise de décisions cliniques. Il s'adresse aux prestataires de soins de santé, aux décideurs et aux directeurs de programmes pour répondre aux besoins des personnes atteintes de troubles mentaux, neurologiques et liés à l'utilisation de substances psychoactives.

Book Description
This book is a practical resource that will support the delivery of holistic mental health interventions in the primary and community care setting for older people. Primary care delivery is discussed in relation to both functional mental health problems, such as anxiety, depression, and psychotic and personality disorders, and acquired organic mental disorders of old age, such as dementia, cognitive impairments, and delirium. Careful consideration is paid to the complex relationship between mental and somatic health problems, as well as the impacts of multimorbidity and polypharmacy. Further topics include, for example, epidemiology, wider determinants of health, different care models, history taking, neurocognitive and capacity assessment, and pharmacological, psychological, and physical interventions. The wider goals of the book are to support the development of community resilience and self-care in older people; to promote universal access and equity for older people in order to enable them to achieve or recover the highest attainable standard of health, regardless of age, gender, or social position; and to promote pathways to care for older people with mental health problems respecting their autonomy, independence, human rights, and the importance of the life-course approach. This book will be an invaluable resource for all professionals who work with older adults with mental health problems and those training in these fields including physicians, psychiatrists, family doctors, geriatricians, general practitioners, nurses, psychologists, neurologists, occupational therapists, social workers, support workers and community health and social care workers.

Book Description
"In Relational Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Supervision, guest expert supervisor, Dr. Joan E. Sarnat, demonstrates and discusses this approach to supervision. The goal of relational psychodynamic supervision is to create a more experiential, participatory, and relationship-focused form of supervision, one that not only provides usable psychotherapeutic knowledge and skills, but also facilitates the emotional and relational development that is essential to becoming an effective psychodynamic psychotherapist. In this video, Sarnat and her supervisee engage in a supervisory session, and host Dr. Hanna Levenson interviews them about their work together, exploring the constructs of this model and the nature of the supervisory relationship. In the session, Dr. Sarnat's supervisee conveys that she is frustrated by how her patient is discounting her during the termination phase of therapy. By becoming aware of and working with her own feelings of frustration within the session, Dr. Sarnat demonstrates the art of using a reenactment to help the supervisee deepen her awareness and thereby facilitate the therapy."--

Book Description
Depression is the most prevalent mental health disorder in later life, affecting 1 in 10 older people. It can have devastating effects on quality of life and is associated with an increased mortality, poorer recovery from physical illness, longer hospital stays and greater health care costs. Yet of all mental disorders, depression is the most readily treatable. This book provides practical clinical guidance and communicates in a concise, easy-to-read format the mass of information now available in this area. Written from an evidence-based perspective, it presents authoritative guidelines on the best practice and management of depression in older people with regard to the presentation, causation, drug and non-drug management of depression and the aftercare involved in order to keep the patient well. Supported with clinical data and additional practical material, ranging from scales and algorithms to summaries of major papers and WPA teaching modules, this is a valuable resource not only for psychiatrists but also neurologists, geriatricians and primary care practitioners.
