Summary

Suicidal behaviors among adolescents represents a public health problem due to its high prevalence and its low predictability. It is also known that brain development continues during adolescence, therefore, a therapeutic intervention during this period might propitiate neural changes that might favor the emotional regulation involved in suicidal behaviors.
