Blended Therapy From the Perspective of Mental Health Professionals in Routine Mental Health Care: Mixed Methods Analysis of Cross-Sectional Survey Data
The findings indicate that mental health professionals report limited knowledge of BT and consider it more suitable for certain disorders than others. Moreover, from their perspective, while BT offers advantages, it also presents disadvantages. Addressing mental health professional knowledge gaps, alongside resolving perceived implementation barriers, may be key to the successful future implementation of BT in routine mental health settings.
