Learning unit contents

The course of intervention modalities in children's clinics proposes to study, to specify the tools of intervention of psychologists in the care of children and the accompaniment of parents and to draw up the current landscape of the various intervention clinics most often organized in a multidisciplinary way in the field of psychopathology.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

To attend this course, the "Assessment methods in clinical child psychology" (PSYC 5882) course has to be completed.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The methodological approach is as follows: it will consist of 3 introductory courses that propose a synthesis of the elements of the psychologist's intervention framework (posture, tools and attitude), evidence-based references and the systemic family context with parental interventions. Each of the other courses proposes a presentation of a particular clinic by an external intervener, a psychologist. Each intervener is invited to detail his or her interventions, placing them in the child's clinical trajectory and psychopathological context. It is through the story of care that the professionals illustrate their analyses, their hypotheses, their methods of intervention and their evaluations. The children's trajectories then reveal the diversity of intervention modalities in relation to the evolution of care. (in maternity wards, outpatient care, complex situations, medico-psycho-social situations, chronic illness, pain and bereavement clinics, multicultural care, attachment clinics, ....).
