The article comments on the Italian “National Action Plan for Mental Health”, suggesting a truly transdisciplinary approach that enhances all the disciplines and professionals involved, ensuring the methodological, organizational, and financial aspects needed for its concrete implementation.

Applying the transdisciplinary approach, “Project communities” are needed to build and implement a shared project, in which various social actors participate in planning and in integrated operational strategies.

The mental health services should have as their objective “health” in the broadest sense, i.e., a state of psychophysical and social well-being and a good quality of life, to be improved within social contexts.

Overcoming the ancient dualism between the biological and psychosocial approaches, the principle of “One Health” requires adequate support by the psychological profession to promote welfare and well-being, placing “the mind at the centre of life”, both at individual and social levels.
