Zusammenfassung

Expertise and excellence in Clinical Psychology are receiving renewed interest in the international scene. How clinical psychologists do their work, depending on which psychological treatments they apply, explains a large amount of the variability in treatment outcomes. Evidence concerning the expertise effects is largely contradictory owing to the absence of an operational consensus definition. The present opinative narrative review attempts to analyze the literature on the topic, proposes a definition and pursues to stimulate the debate among academics and clinicians to consider the expertise as a key variable in treatment effectiveness. The Spanish training model in Clinical Psychology is discussed, aiming to systematize the training and supervision in order to promote excellence in clinical performance throughout the professional cycle.

En cualquier caso, no importa el rumbo que toma el movimiento de los tratamientos basados en la evidencia. Importa lo que podemos hacer y la revisión y reflexión en el campo especializado sobre el concepto más adecuado, en nuestra opinión, de «práctica basada en la evidencia» (APA Presidential Task Force on Evidence-Based Practice, 2006; Beck et al., 2014). Importa que tengamos la oportunidad de cooperar y entrenar sistemáticamente a los profe-sionales para hacer de ellos profesionales que persigan la excelencia clínica. Este aserto se ve rubricado en la literatura que revisa la pericia y la excelencia en la práctica clínica. Cuando los datos se analizan en profundidad no cabe lugar a dudas sobre qué es un tra-tamiento psicológico de calidad, quién lo debe proporcionar y cómo debe estar entrenado dicho profesional (Baldwin y Imel, 2013; Hill et al., 2017; Norcross, 2011; Okiishi et al., 2006; Rousmaniere et al., 2017). En el estado actual de las cosas en este país, y en el particular contexto del Sistema Nacional de Salud, cabe reivindicar la figura del psicólogo clínico, y su sistema de formación vía residencia, sobre otras opciones, como esa figura profesional. Por otro lado, y en un entorno que no favorece precisamente la aplicación de tra-tamientos psicológicos en las condiciones ideales, cabe reevaluar cómo mejorar el sistema de formación tanto durante el periodo de formación PIR como posteriormente a lo largo del ejercicio independiente.
