Abstract
Objective To meet mental health needs in men with depression, gender sensitive services are
needed and recommended. Therefore, mental health professionalsʼ views on care needs
among men with depression that should be met by gender-sensitive services were assessed
and consequences for inpatient treatment are considered.
Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 33 mental health professionals focusing
on menʼs specific needs in depression treatment against the background of male gender
role expectations. Qualitative Content Analysis was performed using MAXqda-Software.
Results Men with depression benefit from individual talk with staff and structured activity
during treatment. Men-only groups are assessed as enabling critical reflection of
aspects of masculinity. Physical activities and handicraft enable men to examine their
performance level. Services focusing on men’s specific needs are assessed as helpful
but largely inexistent.
Conclusion Expectations of social gender roles and their implications for mental health treatment
should be considered in both mental health professional training and mental health
treatment.
