Methods: Using registry data from the Centre General Wellbeingwork (CAW), a collection of centers in the regions Bru…

Sexual Feelings Toward Clients in the Psychotherapeutic Relationship
Talking about sexual feelings toward clients is still difficult for many mental health professionals. This is unfortunate, because exploring and talking about these feelings with peers (especially senior ones) or supervisors can help professionals to recognize, acknowledge, accept, and handle these feelings well. This focus group study explores the various factors that contribute to psychotherapists’ hesitancy to talk about these feelings. The an…
Victims of the Terrorist Attacks in Belgium and Professional Mental Health Aid Barriers
Introduction: Terrorist attacks can cause short and long-term stress-reactions, anxiety, and depression among those exposed. Sometimes, professional mental health aid, meaning all types of professional psychotherapy, would be appropriate, but victims often delay or never access mental health aid, even up to a decade after the initial event.
