to tailor treatments to individual patients. This approach aims to identify specific biomarkers that can guide treatment selection and improve outcomes.
2. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): A non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate targeted brain regions. TMS has shown promise in treating depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and other conditions.
3. Virtual Reality (VR) Therapy: Using VR simulations to create safe and controlled environments for exposure therapy. VR therapy has been used to treat anxiety disorders, phobias, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
4. Neuroplasticity-Based Interventions: Enhancing brain plasticity through exercises or cognitive training. These interventions aim to improve cognitive function and reduce symptoms in conditions such as depression and schizophrenia.
5. Digital Health Technologies: Leveraging smartphones, wearable devices, and online platforms to deliver mental health
interventions. These technologies offer convenience, accessibility, and the ability to track progress remotely.
6. Mindfulness-Based Interventions: Incorporating mindfulness techniques into therapeutic approaches. Mindfulness has been shown to reduce stress, improve emotion regulation, and enhance overall well-being.
The development of these novel therapeutic approaches holds great promise for improving the lives of individuals with mental disorders. Researchers are actively conducting clinical trials to evaluate their efficacy and safety. These approaches have the potential to reshape the future of mental health treatment and offer new hope to millions.

Neurobiological mechanisms of emotional regulation
Emotional regulation refers to the ability to manage and control one’s emotions, both positive and negative. It is an essential skill for maintaining mental health and well-being. Neurobiological research has helped to shed light on the mechanisms that underpin emotional regulation.
Neural Circuits Involved in Emotional Regulation
The brain regions primarily involved in emotional regulation include:
Prefrontal cortex (PFC): Responsible for cognitive control, decision-making, and managing
