EDUCARE50192022-08-02T23:49:28Z Mental Health Counseling: Thoughts on Defining a Professional Intervention field La orientación para la salud mental: Reflexiones para delimitar un campo de intervención profesional Garita Pulido, Ana Victoria Counseling health ecological theory intervention mental health promotion strengths Costa Rica Educare e-Journal Orientación salud teoría ecológica intervención promoción de la salud mental fortalezas Costa Rica Revista Electrónica Educare The purpose of this paper is to provide some thoughts on a series of points of view that will help us in defining mental health as an intervention field of counseling. Reference is made to the epistemological positioning adopted to understand health, which is focused on a contextual perspective. A health promotion model is proposed to support the counseling activity. The reasons for limiting the intervention to mental health promotion, which are related to theoretical and methodological references inherent to the discipline, are also explained. Recommendations are made on the aspects to be considered for both individual and collective approaches and for extending the professional practice of counselors with an efficient performance as mental health promoters. Recibido 31 de enero de 2013 • Corregido 10 de marzo de 2013 • Aceptado 13 de marzo de 2013 El propósito de este artículo es presentar algunas reflexiones sobre una serie de argumentos que permiten delimitar la salud mental como campo de intervención para la orientación. Se hace alusión al posicionamiento epistemológico que se asume para comprender la salud, centrado en una perspectiva contextual, y se propone el modelo de promoción de la salud para sustentar la acción orientadora. Se presentan las razones que circunscriben la intervención a la promoción de la salud mental vinculadas a los referentes teóricos y metodológicos propios de la disciplina. A la vez, se sugieren aspectos a considerar en el abordaje individual y grupal, así como para ampliar la práctica profesional con un ejercicio eficiente de la persona orientadora en su rol como promotora de salud mental.
