Abstract:
This thesis forms part of the criteria for the qualification of the Doctorate in Forensic Psychology Practice (ForenPsyD). Its overall aim is to examine the prevalence of mental disorders and unmet needs among offenders managed by the Probation Service, because the understanding of this has very important implications for epidemiology, health service planning and future offending. The first chapter of this thesis presents a general introduction to the topic. Chapter two is a single case study, which describes work undertaken in relation to risk assessment and development of a care plan with a

Background Major Depressive Disorder is a leading cause of disease burden for women of childbearing age. The prevalence of perinatal depression is significantly higher in women from low and middle income countries than from high income countries. Antenatal depression is associated with low birth weight and preterm delivery. There is also evidence that depression during pregnancy can alter the development of a woman's fetus and her child, with an increased risk for child emotional and behavioral problems. Detection of perinatal depression in primary health care (PHC) is very low. This research
