Following the passing of regulations in our country concerning health psychology, the Master's Degree in General Health Psychology has become an essential requisite to work as a psychologist in the field of health, carrying out assessments, research and interventions with the aim of promoting and improving people's health.
This Master's program from Comillas Pontifical University stands out from the rest since its learning outcomes include intervention strategies concerning psychological problems from different psychology theory perspectives (systemic, humanistic, cognitive-behavioral and psycho-dynamic), in order to be able to make proposals on the therapeutic course of action that best suits the situation in hand. Given the wide range of lines of treatment available, this Master's Degree has been allocated 120 ECTS credits.
The program focuses on the professional activity, which is why the subjects taught provide expertise in areas such as the development of the therapeutic process, with special emphasis on the different work methods applied depending on the chosen therapeutic path, psychopathology, psychological treatment according to various individual and relational problems or intervention in chronic health problems. Alongside these scopes of application, the students acquire core knowledge on health psychology and research skills.
In the second year, the Master's program offers a wide range of optional subjects. These optional subjects can be structured through one of the specialization study plans out of the three on offer: family therapy, humanistic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral intervention with children.
