What matters for sustainable psychosocial interventions and who decides? Critical ethnography of a lay counselling program in Nepal
Lay counselling, or the delivery of talk-based therapeutic support by people without a clinical degree, is gaining popularity as a way of addressing global shortages of mental health professionals. In Nepal, lay counselors have made significant contributions to mental health and psychosocial care over the last two decades, particularly in the aftermath of major emergencies. However, research on the longer-term integration and sustainability of la…
Psychosocialization in Nepal
As ‘psychosocial interventions’ continue to gain traction in the field of global mental health, a growing critical literature problematises their vague definition and attendant susceptibility to appropriation. In this article, I recast this ill-defined quality as interpretive flexibility and explore its role in processes of translation occurring at the frontlines of care in rural Nepal. Drawing from 14 months of ethnographic fieldwork among commu…
Healing ‘Heart-Minds’
The movement for global mental health calls for rapidly scaling up mental health services in low- and middle-income countries. This call has mobilised new resources, logics and solidarities while also igniting polemical scholarly debates about culture and power in the psy‐ences. Over the past 10 years, Nepal has become a key site of global mental health research and practice. In the wake of the devastating 2015 earthquake, advocates worked to cha…
Ethnographic case study of a community day center for asylum seekers as early stage mental health intervention
Clinical guidelines in refugee mental health increasingly advocate phased approaches to intervention that foreground the provision of pragmatic and social support in contexts of ongoing instability. However, the impact of such interventions has rarely been explored from the perspective of refugees themselves. We conducted ethnographic research on the experiences and perceptions of users of an intervention embodying this approach: a community Day …
The gap between entitlement and access to healthcare
In 2012 the Canadian government made significant cuts to its historically strong federal refugee health coverage plan. While this policy had negligible effects on the level of coverage provided to asylum seekers in Quebec, there is evidence that this group nonetheless experienced reduced healthcare access during the period of polarized national debate that ensued. This study engaged the "candidacy" model of healthcare access to illuminate factors…
