Abstract
Coifman and Gunstad (2024) raise cogent points about childhood and adolescence as a place to begin to help close the mental health treatment gap, note the potential of applications (apps) as a modality of intervention given the pervasiveness of smartphones, and highlight a large-scale intervention study to convey that treatments can be scaled in outcome research. I expand the range of interventions we might consider, pose a best-buy approach to decide how and where to begin to address the treatment gap, and underscore that mental health problems in children, adolescents, and adults are on the rise. We still have no evidence that we can close the treatment gap and that to do so will require a marriage of multiple disciplines, interventions, and agencies to effect change.
