TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Are barriers to psychotherapy treatment seeking indicators of social determinants of health? A critical review of the literature JO - American journal of family therapy A1 - Tambling, Rachel R. A1 - Hynes, Kevin C. A1 - D'Aniello, Carissa SP - 443 EP - 458 VL - 50 IS - 5 N2 - One of the most persistent and troubling health disparities is the underutilization of mental health services by individuals with marginalized aspects of their identity. We provide a critical review of the literature of barriers to psychotherapy initiation and the connection to social determinants of health. We propose a change from a deficit-based view of the problem to a strength-based view that include the following strategies: family therapy treatments designed to reduce barriers, telehealth as an option to address treatment barriers, changes to the recruitment of therapists-in-training, and person of the therapist development.
