Analysts’ Viewpoint on Behavioral Health Market Scenario
The global behavioral health market is driven by the rise in incidence of mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression across the globe. Government agencies across the globe are taking several initiatives to tackle the issue of mental health. Mental health counseling has become the need of the hour, with an increase in the number of children, adults, and geriatric population facing serious mental health issues. Investments in the field have also enabled the expansion of community-based psychiatric care. Stakeholders should focus on offering telepsychiatry services for their patients in order to increase their revenue share in the global behavioral health market.
Behavioral health refers to a person’s overall well-being and ability to respond to situations in life. Behavioral health issues affect an individual’s mental and physical well-being. The behavioral health market includes disorders such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, alcohol use disorders, substance use disorders, eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PSTD). Increase in investment in behavioral health and expansion of behavioral health facilities have helped service providers enhance health care delivery.
Behavioral health services comprise mental health, alcohol & substance abuse, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia, and eating disorder services. Rise in number of adults, children, and elderly people with serious mental illness has increased the need for behavioral health treatment. Additionally, the stigma of mental illness is decreasing, enabling patients to seek treatment for mental health issues. Youngsters and adults are more open to expressing issues and thoughts to the therapist, which helps them overcome stress and depression. Rise in mental health issues due to stress, peer pressure, and social & economic hardship is another major factor likely to boost the demand for mental health therapeutics and behavioral health services. Demand for mental disorder drugs is rising in developing countries. According to the WHO, anxiety and depression have a significant economic impact. Harassment and bullying at work are other key issues that adversely affect mental health.
Telepsychiatry is a field of telemedicine that applies modern technologies to the delivery of health care services for mental illnesses. It facilitates immediate response to patient needs, thereby minimizing emergency admissions. This type of modern technology and telecommunication is one of the key contributors to the increase in interaction between psychiatrists and patients. Several mental health service providers offer telepsychiatry in various health care settings such as outpatient clinics, emergency departments, and military bases. Growth in awareness about the advantages of telepsychiatry such as control and immediate patient care among mental health service providers is anticipated to drive the adoption of telepsychiatry, especially in developed countries. Mental health software is increasingly used by medical professionals to understand mental patterns of patients in order to offer them accurate treatment.
In terms of disorder type, the global behavioral health market has been classified into depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, alcohol use disorders, eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorders. The depression segment accounted for large share of the global market in 2021. The segment is expected to expand at a high CAGR from 2022 to 2031. Rise in number of depression cases due to negative thoughts, socioeconomic pressure, and serious illness is propelling the global market.
Based on service type, the global behavioral health market has been divided into inpatient hospital treatment services, outpatient counseling, emergency mental health services, and home-based treatment services. The outpatient counseling segment held major share of the global market in terms of revenue in 2021. This trend is likely to continue during the forecast period. Advantages of outpatient counseling over inpatient treatment such as low cost, high level of privacy, and flexible schedule as per treatment are likely to fuel the segment.
Europe dominated the global behavioral health market in 2020. The market in the region is primarily driven by the rise in prevalence of behavioral health disorders such as depression and anxiety. Increase in number of substance abuse and alcohol abuse disorder cases is also projected to drive the behavioral health market in the region.

The market in North America is anticipated to grow at a moderate pace during the forecast period. Strategic developments such as launch of new facilities and acquisitions are expected to augment the behavioral health market in the region. Asia Pacific accounted for key share of the global behavioral health market in 2021. The market in the region is driven by the increase in the number of alcohol abuse and substance use disorder cases.
