“We are at a cross-roads. It is imperative to take the correct path.”
– Professor Gabriel Ivbijaro, Secretary General WFMH
 
October 10, 2022 has been designated as World Mental Health Day, with the theme “making mental health & well-being for all a global priority”, as we are all still reeling from the effects of the pandemic, a war, and the climate emergency. And stigma and discrimination continue to be a barrier to receiving the right kind of care.
 
But there is some good news: there is increasing evidence that the prevention of mental ill health is possible with targeted evidence-based interventions, which Hogrefe authors outline in our books and numerous researchers detail in our journals. We publish all of our products according to scientific guidelines, with the aim to help mental health professionals provide the best treatment options for their clients.
 
Read on for resources designed to provide you with the latest research-based strategies for handling mental health.
