In addition to monitoring and treating the cardiac disease, patients benefit from health professionals recognizing and managing the potential psychosocial consequences of growing up with congenital heart disease. Working groups from Europe and North America have emphasized the benefit of inclusion of specialized mental health care for adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients. This article reviews the evidence that ACHD patients have special and unique psychosocial needs and outlines ways in which psychologists can be integrated into multidisciplinary ACHD care teams. There are three professional domains in which clinical health psychologists can contribute to an ACHD team: provision of clinical services, multidisciplinary research, and professional education. Considerations for incorporating psychology into ACHD teams are presented.
