A webinar in which we want to converse based on the reading of the document Devices, diagnoses, and treatments in child and adolescent mental health within the high-complexity contexts of the 21st century.
We start from what the demand and tendency to prematurely diagnose the symptoms of children and adolescents entail, and at the same time, to medicalize and psychologize their discomforts.
We will conduct an analysis and discussion regarding the current situation in the public mental health care network for children and adolescents, and we will present some proposals and examples of good practice.
