Izvleček		Glavoboli so pogosta težava tako pri odraslih kot tudi pri otrocih in mladostnikih. Običajno niso posledica resne nevrološke bolezni. Kljub temu lahko kronični glavoboli moteče vplivajo na prizadetega otroka ali mladostnika in na njegovo družino. Potrebna je skrbna celostna obravnava. Psiholog lahko pomaga zdravniku pri diagnosticiranju težav. Pri tem uporablja psihodiagnostične teste in klinični intervju. Pomaga tudi pri zdravljenju in sodeluje z zdravnikom. Uporablja lahko različne psihoterapevtske tehnike, relaksacijske tehnike, *biofeedback* in kognitivne tehnike. Po potrebi sodeluje s širšim otrokovim okoljem.
