Abstract

As the introduction to the Clinician’s Handbook of Pediatric Psychological Consultation in Medical Settings, this chapter sets the stage for the book by defining consultation-liaison (CL) and differentiating it from other forms of pediatric psychology practice. Competencies for the practitioner of CL pediatric psychology, including the necessary training experiences, are addressed along with strategies for becoming an effective CL psychologist. A brief historical overview is provided to help the reader develop the context and evolution of current CL practice. Finally, the authors introduce the framework for the handbook to guide the reader through the book.
