BENITEZ-ORTEGA, José L et al. Towards the creation of the health qualification of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology. Rev. Asoc. Esp. Neuropsiq. [online]. 2022, vol.42, n.141, pp.115-136.  Epub 18-Jul-2022. ISSN 2340-2733.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0211-57352022000100007.

There is still no official title of health specialist in Clinical child and adolescent psychology in Spain. However, there are many reasons for creating it: the urgent need to improve the quality of children and adolescents´ mental health care; the fact that this health specialty already exists as a differentiated and consolidated scientific discipline; the need for a proper training program for this clinical psychology area, due to the specificity and extent of the scientific knowledge and professional skills necessary for its exercise; or that Clinical child and adolescent psychology, as a matter of fact (although it is not yet officially or legally recognized), already exists as a differentiated health specialty in some public health systems. This article presents and explains these and other equally relevant reasons in detail, with the aim of promoting the creation of this new health specialty in our country.

Palavras-chave : clinical psychology; child psychology; adolescent; mental health; public health.
