Objective: To identify from the scientific literature the psychosocial and mental health interventions developed by health professionals.Methodology: Narrative review through searches in databases provided by the Cooperative University of Colombia, such as BVS and Taylor &amp; Francis, and in search engines such as SciELO and Google Scholar, where 30 scientific articles in English and Spanish were identified, taking into account the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Results: Participants were identified between 35 weeks of gestation and 76 years of age, with a predominance of the 30-60 age group. Likewise, it was established that the predominant type of diagnosis or history in 30% of cases was people with some type of psychopathology. It was established that 63% of the articles analysed included interventions that sought to use a single method to cover mental health promotion, mental disorder prevention and mental illness treatment.
