Multidisciplinary in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry - Training in Mental Health

Multiprofessional Specialization in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry - Mental Health Training

The Multiprofessional Specialization in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry - Mental Health Training prepares professionals to work in the care of children and adolescents with psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders, in an integrated perspective between clinic, development, language, learning and family, school and social context.

Lasting 12 months and 570 hours, the course articulates 180 hours of theoretical training, 300 hours of supervised internship and 90 hours dedicated to the Final Course Project. Practical activities are developed at the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Service (SEPIA) of the Institute of Psychiatry of HCFMUSP, covering outpatient, child day hospital and child psychiatry ward.

The pedagogical proposal starts from the understanding that child and adolescent mental health requires responses that consider the particularities of this population, the integral care of the individual and their family and the articulation between health, education, social assistance and other sectors of the care network
