“…The use of psychopharmacological agents in the treatment of individuals who struggle with mental health conditions continues to be the standard of care and is not going away anytime soon (Adams, Miller, & Zylstra, 2008;Bostwick, 2010;Dejesus, et al, 2011;Gitlin & Mieczkowski, 2020). Regardless of the belief systems of SFTs, the majority of individuals with mental health concerns are being treated in primary care, and psychopharmacological agents are the treatment of choice for depressive, anxiety, and a host of other disorders (Benich et al, 2016;Mughal et al, 2021). Primary care is the de facto mental health care system in the U.S., and the routine use of medications results in many clients being prescribed PM before they are seen in therapy (Kessler & Stafford, 2008).…”

Many aspects of systemic family therapist (SFT) training and competence play a vital role in effective treatment and professional satisfaction. One area that has been significantly overlooked by many SFTs is the role of psychotropic medication (PM) in conjunction with talk therapy for optimal mental health outcomes. This study explores the current status of PM in SFT training and clinical practice. Our findings highlight the continued struggle of SFTs in their comfort level with addressing the PM needs of their clients. We identified a perceived inadequacy of SFT training and supervision regarding PM use. SFTs around the world need to find educational opportunities to improve their competence in working with their clients and their prescribed medications. Additional studies need to be conducted on strategies and mechanisms to improve client care. If SFTs are ignorant of PM, their treatment of clients—who often use PM—will be compromised.

“…The overarching recommendation regarding psychopharmacologic interventions prescribed by the PCP is to provide appropriate and evidence-based interventions to the patient. 40,41 PCPs should gain comfort with common psychopharmacologic interventions for the treatment of anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, and substance use disorders. Providing patients with an adequate trial of medication at a therapeutic medication dose can enhance treatment outcomes.…”

Primary care nurse practitioners are in a visible and critical position to screen, diagnose, and treat common mental health conditions. Integrated care models occur on a continuum from simple communication between providers to fully integrated interprofessional teams. Regardless of integration model available to the primary care nurse practitioner, mental health disorders should be appropriately identified and treated using evidence-based approaches. This clinical feature introduces the primary care nurse practitioner to various integrated care models and provides a brief overview regarding screening, diagnostic, and intervention recommendations, as well as potential future directions for education, training, and research.

“…Although almost all branches of medicine, especially neurology, physical medicine and rehabilitation, family medicine, and urology benefit from the developments in psychopharmacology [37][38][39][40][41]; expectations from these developments, and its applications to the practice remain mainly to be the field of psychiatry. Research shows that the applications made to psychiatry outpatient clinics also include illnesses, personality and relationship problems whose diagnosis and treatment algorithms are not well established [42,43].…”

Psychotherapy can be defined as a treatment method consisting of psychological tools whereby a trained expert works with a person or a group to resolve the patient's biopsychosocial problems through relation and communication.This paper aims to create a look into the use of psychotherapies within the current psychiatric and medical notions and seek to emphasize that a new concept such as "psychotherapeutic intervention" is needed to overcome the contradiction mentioned above or that this concept needs to be revived and its
