Physicians reported current practices, barriers, and interventions for mental health care. Patients reported their mental health experiences, barriers to access, and preferences for interventions. Surveys were distributed through professional networks, clinics, and social media, with analyses conducted using descriptive statistics and Cohen \u03ba for agreement.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In total, 25 rheumatologists and 235 patients participated. Physicians cited limited availability of mental health providers (88%) and insufficient time (84%) as top barriers. Few used standardized screening tools like PHQ-9 (16%) or GAD-7 (12%). Patients reported anxiety (41.7%) and depression (39.9%) as common concerns, with many facing challenges accessing care owing to long wait times and lack of affordability. Patients favored integrated mental health services within rheumatology clinics (58.6%), whereas physicians preferred external referrals. Agreement between groups on interventions ranged from moderate (\u03ba 0.64) for primary care screening to low (\u03ba 0.25) for integration of services into the rheumatology clinic.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Mental health care in SLE management remains underdeveloped, hindered by systemic barriers and discordance between patient and provider preferences. Standardized screening, interprofessional collaboration, and alignment of perspectives would likely improve mental health outcomes and overall patient quality of life. These findings highlight opportunities for targeted interventions and guideline development in mental health care for SLE.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.2025-0089","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,1]],"date-time":"2025-07-01T08:35:15Z","timestamp":1751358915000},"page":"1115-1122","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Identifying the State of Mental Health Care in Canadian Adults With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus"],"prefix":"10.3899","volume":"52","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6039-5665","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Justin D.","family":"Smith","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-1463-127X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bo","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5681-0622","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stephanie","family":"Keeling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2262","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2097","DOI":"10.1007\/s00296-022-05183-4","article-title":"Global and regional prevalence and incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus in low-and-middle income countries: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"42","author":"Fatoye","year":"2022","journal-title":"Rheumatol Int"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1529-0131(199904)42:4<599::AID-ANR2>3.0.CO;2-F"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12888-017-1234-1"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"499","DOI":"10.1080\/00981389.2015.1045575","article-title":"Lupus (SLE): existence and impact of depressive symptomatology","volume":"54","author":"Beckerman","year":"2015","journal-title":"Soc Work Health Care"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/art.24236"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrrheum.2009.106"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"104","DOI":"10.1002\/acr.23247","article-title":"Socioeconomic predictors of incident depression in systemic lupus erythematosus","volume":"70","author":"Mccormick","year":"2018","journal-title":"Arthritis Care Res"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/096120330000900710"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpeds.2015.07.048"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.10","first-page":"1245","article-title":"Variable effects of social support by race, economic status, and disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus","volume":"28","author":"Bae","year":"2001","journal-title":"J Rheumatol"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/art.1790110105"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.12","first-page":"1967","article-title":"Determinants of discordance between patients and physicians in their assessment of lupus disease activity","volume":"30","author":"Yen","year":"2003","journal-title":"J Rheumatol"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/rheumatology\/40.6.695"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.151228"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1529-0131(199912)12:6<401::AID-ART8>3.0.CO;2-F"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0961203312463979"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3200\/BMED.35.1.5-13"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1191\/0961203303lu332oa"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1525-1497.2001.016009606.x"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.166.10.1092"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-5415.2005.53221.x"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-3956(75)90026-6"},{"key":"2025120301250841000_52.11.1115.23","unstructured":"Statistics Canada .
