22.01.2022 "The biomedical approach to understanding and treating people’s experiences of altered states of mind and/or distress continues to dominate mental health policy, practice, and research. Responding to distress and unusual emotional or mental experiences as largely matters of a broken brain (Webb, 2010) is not only dominant within psychiatry but also within related disciplines such as psychology, nursing, and social work. Together these and other allied professions form what ...is known as the psy complex, which is an expansive and overarching system that informs and intersects with other neoliberal systems of oppression (Gorman & LeFrançois, in press; LeFrançois, 2013). The effects of this widespread dominance means that key professions, such as social work and mental health nursing, serve as handmaidens (Adam, 2014) to carrying out biomedical psychiatric interventions, eschewing those professions’ roots in critical and radical approaches to providing support within a social model (Beresford, 2002, 2005; Beresford, Perring, Nettle, & Wallcraft, 2016). In effect, the allied professions of clinical psychology, psychiatric social work, and mental health nursing have been almost wholly complicit in perpetrating the violence (Shimrat, 2013), racism (Butler, 2016; Kanani, 2011; LeFrançois, 2013; Voronka, 2013), sanism (Fabris, 2011; Poole et al., 2012), and epistemic injustice (Donskoy, 2015; LeBlanc & Kinsella, 2016; Liegghio, 2013) that are inherent to psychiatric oppression. However, the emergence of Mad Studies in Canada via critical disability studies, provides a convincing and unifying challenge to both the biomedical model of psychiatry and to its adherents within the psy complex." From the Editorial intro. Here's a link to some excellent articles. https://journals.library.mun.ca//index.p/IJ/issue/view/119 See more
