Growing out of an interest in exploring the contemporary contexts
and practices related to mental health social work across the
world, this book provides a range of insights into the social
factors which contribute, sometimes quite significantly, to the
emergence of mental health problems for individuals and even whole
communities. The range and scope of mental health social work is
highlighted through the different accounts of therapeutic work,
advocacy, support and rehabilitation. But this collection goes
further and also provides the reader with critical analyses of
social work practice and social policies in certain contexts, thus
inviting the reader to a more reflective consideration of the value
of mental health perspectives in social work in general. Taken as a
whole, the collection suggests that social work engages with the
field of mental health in diverse, creative, and very reflective
ways, yet is always focused on the needs and rights of those for
whom problems with mental health can be personally challenging and
often disempowering. This book was originally published as a
special issue of the Journal of Social Work Practice.
