dc.description.abstractMental health is directly connected to people's quality of life. Through a literature review, this paper explores existing knowledge on the internal barriers of people who do not seek mental health support and the utility of counselling services. The research findings suggest that social learning-based, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive directory services offer promising facilitators to encourage people to seek professional mental health support and improve psychological well-being. Additionally, this paper discusses challenges and limitations associated with trauma responses and suggests future research directions, including the related areas to bridge services for people who seek mental health support.
