[PC-BH-Integration] hello and research query

[Michael Dow]

Hi All,

I am a PsyD student working in a new primary care integration project 
in Boulder, Colorado. We're an FQHC working in collaboration with the 
CMHC across the street. I'm looking for a dissertation project and have 
had difficulty finding much published research in this area. A typical 
psycinfo search doesn't yield many results.

Are any of the members of this listserv involved in primary care 
integration research? If so, I'm wondering if anyone has any 
suggestions for areas in need of more research, and would be willing to 
help me think about possible and doable projects.

Does anyone know about any research of the following in the primacy 
care environment?:

1. Effectiveness of group treatments in primary care environment
2. Effectiveness of mindfulness based interventions in primary care 
environment
2. Diabetes management in conjunction with depression management (does 
diabetes management that involves a behavioral health professional have 
advantage over management by nurse educators?)
3. Response of spanish speaking patients to behavioral health 
interventions in primary care environment

I'm also just generally interested in neuropsych issues along the lines 
of Daniel Siegel and Antonio Damasio.

If anyone has any thoughts about these or other research topics, I'd 
welcome your thoughts.

Thanks.
