Mental health services are programs and strategies devised for support and treatment of individuals suffering from mental health issues, thereby promoting psychological well-being. These services aim to facilitate rapid recovery and enhance the quality of life for those affected by mental health issues. Some of the common mental health services include counseling, psychiatric services, crisis intervention, and group support services.
The growth of the global mental health service market is majorly driven by alarming rise in prevalence of mental disorders and increase in awareness about mental disorders through awareness programs. According to the WHO, more than 264 million people of all ages suffered from depression in 2020. Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide, and is a major contributor to the overall global burden of disease. Furthermore, surge in geriatric population significantly contributes toward the growth of the global market. This is attributed to the fact that elderly individuals experience a reduced sense of purpose as the age, despite their significant contributions to the society. According to a mental health statistic by Forbes, the cases of depressive & anxiety disorders have rose to 28% and 25%, respectively, post the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, with retirement and drop in income, the incidence of ageism makes them highly susceptible to psychological distress, thereby impacting their mental health. As per the 2023 statistics derived from the World Health Organization. approximately 14% of adults aged 60 and over live with a mental disorder. To reduce these increasing figures, mental health services play a crucial role to cope with anxiety and depression. However, high cost associated with mental health services and notable shortage of qualified mental health professionals act as the key deterrent factor of the global market. On the contrary, increase in public health campaigns and educational programs to promote mental health awareness is expected to offer remuneration opportunities for the growth of the mental health service market during the forecast period. For instance, Mind’s “If this speaks to you” is a mental health campaign that aims to challenge the way mental issues are spoken about, thus helping to normalize mental health issues and encourage people to seek support. Furthermore, increase in penetration of telehealth and online therapy platforms has made mental health services more accessible, especially for those in remote or underserved areas, which is anticipated to open new avenues for the growth of the market.
