Family physicians provide care for about one-third of the children and adolescents in the United States, many of whom present with psychological concerns. Family physicians often do not recognize these psychological disorders and therefore do not diagnose or treat them. This report describes the implementation of a curriculum designed to increase family medicine trainees' level of awareness that children/adolescents experience psychiatric conditions. This goal is achieved through the addition of a clinical child/adolescent psychologist faculty member, resident self-assessment of training needs and subsequent development of didactic presentations to address these needs. The curriculum relies on the acquisition of child/adolescent psychiatric screeners, development of child/adolescent-focused bibliotherapy materials, and the development of a longitudinal behavioral sciences curriculum. To facilitate the screening of child/adolescent psychiatric disorders, a comprehensive collection of age-appropriate psychiatric screeners were compiled and made readily available in all precepting areas. To assist with the identification of specific child/adolescent psychiatric deficit areas, family medicine resident physicians were presented with an inventory of child/adolescent psychiatric, psychosocial, and behavioral topics, based upon American Academy of Family Practice guidelines and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition psychiatric disorders, and self-selected training deficiencies.

“…In addition to providing ongoing support for medical professionals, pediatric psychologists are well poised for a role within the integrated care team (Clay & Stern, 2005). They have an existing capacity to assess and provide treatment for children with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity-Disorder (ADHD), Anxiety, Depression, and Autism Spectrum Disorders.…”

This article outlines a collaborative health care initiative entitled "Be Happy, Involved, and Positive (B-HIP)"-a grant-funded program through the Illinois Children's Healthcare Foundation. The B-HIP program was developed in January 2009 at the Rush-Copley Medical Center to address the previously undiagnosed mental health care needs for pediatric patients in a primary care setting. This article seeks to illustrate how, through collaborative care, efforts are being made to assess and address the mental health care needs for pediatric patients, and is furthermore an attempt to share information about implementing a pediatric mental health screening for best practices of the proposed prevention program, "B-HIP." The investigators applied the Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC) as a standard of care for identified pediatric patients. Along with anecdotal data of the B-HIP program, an outline of the theory, design, and implementation behind the program's inception is presented.

“…Considering the four parameters of practice, members of the Society of Counseling Psychology join APA divisions representative of contexts or populations served, such as minority status or oppressed and underserved populations, and members of the Society of Clinical Psychology join APA divisions representative of populations served or procedures used. As the often self-defined generalists (Altmaier, Johnson, & Paulsen, 1998) or primary care specialists (Clay & Stern, 2005) within professional psychology, it is not surprising that counseling psychologists are less likely to hold membership in divisions representative of subspecialties. It is always potentially misleading to make too much of membership data because membership is influenced by a wide variety of factors and membership alone does not indicate competence; however, with caution, the data can be informative.…”

Not all clinical health psychologists are trained as clinical psychologists. A significant minority is trained and identifies as counseling psychologists. As a field, it is important to understand how the specialtyspecific values, training context, scholarship, and parameters of practice of counseling psychology contribute to clinical health psychology. In this article, we (a) identify the core values and training context of counseling psychology, (b) review the scholarly history of clinical health psychology by counseling psychologists, (c) present the parameters of practice of clinical health psychology as identified from the extant counseling psychology literature, and (d) examine American Psychological Association membership status to investigate joint membership in the Division of Health Psychology and the Society of Counseling Psychology. Conclusions indicate that (a) an identifiable set of core values guides the training of counseling psychologists, (b) scholarly literature by counseling psychologists has contributed . to the growth and development of clinical health psychology, and (c) parameters of practice refiect the specialty-specific perspective of counseling psychology. As professional psychology continues to grow as a health care profession, clinical health psychology will benefit from the knowledge, values, attitudes, competencies, and practice parameters of counseling psychology, and counseling psychology will benefit from recognizing what it brings to the practice of clinical health psychology.
