International evidence-based treatment guidelines recommend non-pharmacological interventions as gold standard approaches for the treatment of most mental disorders. Despite this, a large treatment gap exists such that many individuals suffering from mental disorders receive only medication or no treatment at all (Kazdin, 2017). The World Health Organization has declared improving mental health a top priority for worldwide sustainability (World Health Organization, 2019) and recommended several transformations of world mental health practices to improve access for all individuals (World Health Organization, 2022). Inspired by this, in this Research Topic, we sought to support dissemination of research on all types of non-pharmacological interventions for mental health and thus, highlight possible avenues for closing the mental health treatment gap and improving mental health care.
