Attitudes and expectations towards mental health interventions in the general population: Comparing face-to-face counseling, blended counseling, and digital or on-paper self-help
The findings suggests that mere self-help (online or on paper) does not sufficiently meet the needs and is not the preferred choice for handling mental health problems for most individuals. If presented with the choice, individuals still prefer face-to-face counseling. Nevertheless, blended interventions can be a promising treatment option for the future.
