Istraživanja u psihoterapiji: Duševno zdravlje muškaraca

Following up on the review of the research in psychotherapy focused on women’s mental health covered in the previous issue, recent research in psychotherapy related to men’s mental health in the context of psychotherapy is presented here. Numerous studies have revealed that there is a silent crisis in men’s mental health. This includes elevated rates of suicide and substance abuse that are even higher in some male sub-groups. Men are also less likely to seek psychotherapy. Given the observed efficacy of psychotherapeutic interventions in treating different kinds of mental health problems, it is imperative to increase help-seeking behaviours and the participation of men in psychotherapy. Struggling to find relevant studies, I realised that this is a fairly neglected research area and wondered how true the claim that psychotherapy is created by men to treat women is.
