Major developments which may influence this include
the increasing use of online and mobile technology as
media for delivering interventions, increasing employment
of
graduate level mental health workers, and an
increasing role of peers with lived experience in provision
of services. These developments each demand the availability
of
simpler, or lower intensity, intervention models,
which
may
benefit from
the development
of
simple
focused intervention methods aligned with particular
therapeutic targets and processes (see Hayward et al
for
an example of a self-help intervention).
