Abstract:
People with mental health problems typically encounter significant health–related morbidities, mortalities, and inequalities in accessing the health care they require. Health psychologists can work towards minimising these inequalities in innovative and imaginative ways. This article will outline potential contributions from health psychologists in supporting people living with mental health problems, whilst identifying the challenges involved.

Abstract:
Stress and fatigue experienced in the workplace are commonly referred to as ‘burnout’. Burnout is a widely recognised psychological syndrome that can have a negative impact for organisations, employees and service users alike. Both individual and organisational interventions have been suggested as strategies through which burnout can be managed. One organisational strategy for preventing and alleviating the symptoms associated with burnout is clinical supervision. While clinical supervision is often cited as an effective intervention for preventing and mitigating the symptoms of burnout, compa

Due to the deinstitutionalization movement which began over thirty years ago, community treatment programs for persons with severe mental illness have had to be developed to replace the services and support that were previously available in psychiatric hospitals.
