This is a follow-up study of a group of patients of Foreign origin for which an indication for analytic psychotherapy was found. The importance of mutual therapist-patient recognition is emphasized. It seems necessary that the patient masters the cultural and socio-economic environment in which he lives, in order to open himself up to an intra-psychic reality. Finally, we formulate the hypothesis that symptoms shown by the patient reveal indirectly adjustment disorders to the cultural environment.

Int J Qual Stud Health Well-being
December 2025
Department of Language and Communication, Centre for Language Studies, Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Purpose: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is less diagnosed among Turkish children, and Turkish clients drop out more often from depression treatments than Dutch clients. This article proposes that cultural differences in collectivistic versus individualistic perceptions of getting an ADHD diagnosis and being treated for depression might explain these ethnic disparities, which have been explored in this study.
Methods: Nine focus group discussions with Turkish individuals and 18 interviews with primary mental health practitioners were conducted.
Barriers and facilitators to engagement with between-session work for low-intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)-based interventions: a qualitative exploration of practitioner perceptions.
BMC Psychiatry
January 2025
Division of Nursing, Midwifery and Social Work, The University of Manchester, Jean McFarlane Building, Oxford Road, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK.
Background: To address the growing demand for psychological treatment, healthcare providers are increasingly utilising low-intensity interventions, characterised by reduced practitioner contact and emphasis on independent patient engagement with therapeutic materials through between-session work (BSW). While BSW is critical for maximising treatment outcomes, patients and practitioners report challenges with its completion. Research identifying factors influencing between-session engagement in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) has largely focused on high-intensity CBT, limiting understanding within low-intensity contexts.
