December 1st, 2009

The importance of receiving mental health services when practicing as a mental health professional has been creating a bit of a buzz lately, and a growing number of officials and advocacy groups are moving towards a greater embrace of professional help for professionals. In a major show of support for the idea, an NHS report due this week is expected to cite high instances of sick leave due to mental health concerns for employees, something which in turn effects the availability and quality of care received by NHS clients. The report is set to recommend intervention and service administration to employees with mental health issues, which comprise around a quarter of the organization’s causes for leaves of absence.

    It must be hard to hear all about the problems that other people are facing all of the time. I can see how this would be a difficult position for anyone to be in and how it could have a negative impact on your own mental health.

    Doctors get sick too and need the services of another doctor. Likewise, it is only appropriate that mental health professions too get professional help, especially because they are exposed to the cumulative pressures and problems of a lot of their clients.
