Overview

Integrated behavioral health plays a very important role in the pediatric practice. This book demonstrates that mental health, behavioral health, and psychology are an integral part of whole person medical care while helping to outline a path for the medical community to integrate behavioral health into their practices. A comprehensive description of integrated behavioral health for general pediatrics is described in the first section of this text. It includes recommended terminology definitions, advice on building an integrated health service, interventions, intersectionality, models of change, person centered treatment planning and the use of integrated behavioral health in residency training programs. The second section focuses on how health equity is improved utilizing integrated behavioral health. Subsequent chapter focuses include describing how integrating psychologists in pediatric practices improves health equity, discussing improved healthcare for transgender youth, inequities of ethnic minorities and improved care for patients with disabilities. The third and final section describes how pediatric subspecialties are improved using integrated behavioral health. Subspecialties included are endocrinology, allergy and immunology, gastroenterology, obesity and medical weight loss and sleep medicine. Written by experts in the field, Utilization of Integrated Behavioral Health in Pediatric Practice fills a much needed gap in medical literature by providing a comprehensive guide to integrated behavioral health, not only in pediatrics, but also pediatric subspecialties.
