Original/alternative title:  Uimasteid tarvitavatele inimestele suunatud tõenduspõhiste väheintensiivsete psühholoogiliste sekkumiste ülevaade

Summary

Drug use (including alcohol and nicotine use) is a serious and complex problem that needs to be addressed systematically at different levels. The implementation of a mental health step-by-step care system has found increasing use in several countries, allowing for the optimal use of resources and on a need-based basis. Low-intensity psychological interventions (LIPIs) are structured activities that are mainly aimed at alleviating the health concerns of people with mild to moderate mental health problems, and at preventing the worsening of disorders. The aim of the analysis is to provide an overview of LIPIs in Estonia and elsewhere in the world, which are aimed at the early detection and reduction of drug use.
