Deane, Frank P.

Overview

My research is broadly aimed at identifying factors that improve help seeking for mental health problems particularly in young people and males. The second area involves research into psycho-social treatments for severe mental disorders and/or alcohol and other drug problems. A major focus has been on the assessment and implementation of recovery-oriented mental health care. I am interested in the role that values, acceptance and therapeutic homework (action plans) play in treatment. This work has extended to applications in physical illnesses and health settings (e.g., palliative care).
