Psychotherapy is an evidence-based treatment for conditions like depression and anxiety, two of the most common psychiatric disorders. Treatment guidelines suggest that structured, evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) should be a front-line treatment option for patients with mild to moderate depression or anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>\nHistorically, most access to publicly-funded psychotherapy in Ontario has been provided by psychiatrists or family physician psychotherapists. But there are less than 1,000 of them in Ontario (out of a total physician population of over 12,000) and they see a much smaller number of patients on average.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhile access to urgent care was low in general (more than half of all patients who sought care for mental health including addictions issues at an Emergency Department did not see any physicians within a month of the visit) access to psychotherapist physicians was even lower. Only two to three per cent of patients with urgent need were able to access psychotherapist physicians.&#xa0;<\/p>\n<p>\nOne part of the solution according to the study is to allow psychotherapists and other clinicians who are not physicians to provide publicly-funded CBT. It points to a program initiated in England that involved training non-physicians to provide publicly-funded CBT as one model for Ontario to consider.<\/p>\n<p>\nCAMH has been one of four mental health hospitals in Ontario taking part in a three-year pilot project based on the England model, and last week the Ontario government announced it was expanding that program under the name Mindability to provide publicly-funded CBT to an additional 80,000 patients a year. But the study estimates that more than ten times that amount of patients&#x2014;up to 900,000 a year in Ontario&#x2014;could benefit from psychotherapy.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#x201c;Evidence-based psychotherapy should be available to all patients suffering from the most prevalent mental disorders,&#x201d; said Dr. Kurdyak. &#x201c;Our study suggests that there are far too few publicly-funded physician psychotherapists to meet the needs of these patients.&#x201d;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is Canada&apos;s largest mental health and addiction teaching hospital, as well as one of the world&apos;s leading research centres in its field.
