Psychological intervention is one of the most important parts in cleft lip/palate team approach. However, the psychological intervention has not been taken into deep consideration until now in China, and thus practical experience has not been obtained in this field. Based on a profound analysis of the reason of psychological abnormality and the psychological characteristics of cleft patients, we suggest that the psychological healthy should be the final destination of cleft lip/palate team approach. We further suggest that, based on the practical condition and experience in China, some therapies like psychological counseling should be feasible at the present time.
