The science of genetics has revolutionized the understanding of disease, and we have entered the era of personalized medicine in which therapies are not only targeted to specific diseases, but increasingly, to specific individuals. New medications, therapies, and technologies are continually emerging for the treatment of a variety of behavioral health problems, such as mood and anxiety disorders and substance use. Collaborative models of care for patients with mental and behavioral disorders have been shown to improve clinical outcomes and are increasingly being integrated into medical settings. The rapid adoption of electronic medical records as the standard in most treatment settings continues to pose challenges for establishing and maintaining rapport in the clinician–patient relationship. Health care organizations are now compelled to pay greater attention to the importance of clinician well-being in reducing burnout and error and in maximizing the performance of the organization, including financial outcomes.
