Aims

We conduct scientific research to improve the quality, accessibility, and sustainability of mental health care in primary care. Our goal is to enhance the mental well-being of individuals within primary care settings. We do this based on the core values of generalpractice (person-centered, continuous, relational, contextual, generalistic) and in collaboration with others within the care chain.

We focus on common mental health complaints, with specific attention to the interplay between physical, psychological, and social factors.Our mission is to strengthen self-management, resilience, and participation, prevent over- and under-treatment, and contribute to providing appropriate mental health care in the right place, ensuring that specialist care remains available for individuals with severe mental health problems. We achieve this by linking research to practice, education, innovation, and collaboration.
