This book was released on 2023-11-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental health services in Ireland are crucial for addressing the psychological well-being of individuals and promoting their overall quality of life. As a mental health specialist, your expertise and insights play a vital role in understanding and providing effective care within this context. This book aims to provide you with an in-depth exploration of mental health services in Ireland, offering a comprehensive understanding of the field from your unique perspective. Through detailed chapters, we will examine various aspects of mental health services, including assessment, diagnosis, treatment approaches, specialized services, community-based care, challenges, and opportunities. Within the confines of Irish society, mental health has long been overshadowed by stigma and misconceptions. Generations have suffered silently, their anguish hidden behind closed doors. However, the tides are turning, and a collective awakening is occurring. Today, mental health is recognized as a fundamental aspect of overall well-being, and Ireland is embracing the imperative of providing quality mental health services to its citizens. The importance of mental health services in Ireland cannot be overstated. Mental health disorders affect individuals of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, permeating every aspect of their lives. They impact families, communities, and society as a whole. Recognizing the profound societal impact of mental health, Ireland has committed to strengthening its mental health services, striving to create a support system that promotes recovery, resilience, and hope. Addressing the prevailing stigma surrounding mental health is paramount in this endeavour. For far too long, individuals grappling with mental health challenges have faced discrimination, judgment, and isolation.

Download or read book Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court written by Virginia Barber-Rioja and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PROSE Award- Psychology Finalist A timely and important contribution to the study of immigration court from a psychological perspective Every day, large numbers of immigrants undertake dangerous migration journeys only to face deportation or “removal” proceedings once they arrive in the U.S. Others who have been in the country for many years may face these proceedings as well, and either group may seek to gain lawful status by means of an application to USCIS, the benefits arm of the immigration system. Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court examines the growing role of mental health professionals in the immigration system as they conduct forensic mental health assessments that are used as psychological evidence for applications for deportation relief, write affidavits for the court about the course of treatment they have provided to immigrants, help prepare people emotionally to be deported, and provide support for immigrants in detention centers. Many immigrants appear in immigration court—often without an attorney if they cannot afford one—as part of deportation proceedings. Mental health professionals can be deeply involved in these proceedings, from helping to buttress an immigrant’s plea for asylum to helping an immigration judge make decisions about hardship, competency or risks for violence. There are a whole host of psycho-legal and forensic issues that arise in immigration court and in other immigration applications that have not yet been fully addressed in the field. This book provides an overview of relevant issues likely to be addressed by mental health and legal professionals. Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court corrects a serious deficiency in the study of immigration law and mental health, offering suggestions for future scholarship and acting as a vital resource for mental health professionals, immigration lawyers, and judges.
