About the Program

General health psychology applies psychological science to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental health conditions in clinical and health-service contexts. Postgraduate programs in this area typically cover psychopathology, psychological assessment, evidence-based therapeutic interventions, clinical ethics, and the legal framework governing regulated health professions. Students are trained to work as autonomous clinical practitioners rather than as research assistants or counselors in non-regulated roles. In Spain, the title of Psicólogo General Sanitario is a regulated professional qualification that authorizes independent clinical practice. Graduates work in primary care centers, mental health units, hospitals, and private clinics. The program responds to European health workforce legislation that consolidated the pathway to this regulated credential. The master's Psicología General Sanitaria at Complutense University of Madrid runs for 1.5 years and is taught in Spanish. It is located at the Pozuelo De Alarcón campus, with tuition of 1,240.80 EUR per year.

This program's tuition is 55% below the typical master's in Spain.

Median tuition for that cohort is 3,156 USD, across 709 programs on Global Admissions.
