[Child psychiatry in the air of time]

Child psychiatry has undergone major changes over the last few decades, expanding its scope into ever more varied fields. The risk is to divide up the treatment of a single disorder into silos, to the detriment of global care. Indeed, if the diagnostic stage requires expertise, the follow-up must be organized in a global way where somatic problems have their place. The integrative approach makes it possible to respond to the different dimensions of the suffering and to involve the family, and even the social and school environment of the young patient.
