Abstract

The rates of young people reporting psychological distress in Australia is increasing but service access by this group remains poor. Many young people are not seeking help for mental health concerns despite often being aware that they may need to. This issue is compounded by the complex nature of barriers that adolescents face when accessing and engaging with mental health services. This paper presents the integrated findings of a three phase mixed methods approach exploring the determinants of mental health service access and use by adolescents in Perth, Western Australia. This research sought to identify the barriers and facilitators experienced by adolescents during mental health help-seeking. This was done by highlighting and comparing the real-world experiences of adolescent mental health consumers at varying points of the help-seeking process with those of professionals providing mental health services.
