"The Depressed" and "People with Anxiety" therapists' discursive representations of patients with depression and anxiety in Danish Psychiatry.

Stigmatization within mental health care has previously been identified, and some diagnoses have been shown to be particularly exposed to negative attitudes and stigma. However, no previous studies have explored practitioners' discursive construction of patients with different diagnoses within a transdiagnostic group context. We performed discourse analysis on 12 interviews with Danish mental health practitioners, who had been conducting either transdiagnostic psychotherapy (The Unified Protocol) or standard group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with patients treated for anxiety disorders or major depressive disorder.

Negotiating the Practical Meaning of Recovery in a Process of Implementation : An Empirical Investigation of How a Participatory-Inspired Research Approach to Implementation Might Facilitate a More Recovery-Oriented Practice: The Case of RENEW-DK.

As implementation of recovery-oriented practices has proven difficult, this study investigates whether a participatory-inspired approach to implementing and adjusting a recovery-oriented model, RENEW-DK, might facilitate a more recovery-oriented practice among the professionals in public sector services. Ten narrative interviews with professionals was analyzed from a Science and Technology Studies perspective, and special attention was devoted to the concepts of distortion and stigmatization. Despite a one-year participatory process of model adjustment and implementation, professionals experienced RENEW-DK as a distortion and thus shaped their practice of RENEW-DK according to organizational requirements and professional beliefs instead of making their practice more recovery-oriented.

'It is important for us to see the mentors as persons' - participant experiences of a rehabilitation group.

RENEW (Rehabilitation for Empowerment, Natural support, Education, and Work) is an education-oriented support model for young people. : The eight young adults who participated in the group and three mentors who led the group were interviewed about their experiences with the group, and a workshop was held for staff to validate the themes found in the study.

"Caught Between a Rock and a Hard Place"-Between Discourses of Empowerment and Solicitude: Danish Public Sector Service Professionals' Discourses of Nonattendance.

Nonattendance constitutes a profound challenge in public sector services targeting young adults with mental health difficulties. Therefore, researchers and practitioners are occupied with trying to resolve this. For clinicians to be aware of their own naturalized and perhaps inappropriate communicative practices, we investigated the established normative organizational logics behind explanations and strategies related to nonattendance.
