Abstract
This article aims to report on the clinical care of a gifted child in the context of Health and Education. The child showed signs of emotional distress and disruptive behaviors, which were related to the school context. Based on the assessment that revealed this child was gifted, his acceleration by one school year was recommended, which in turn resulted in complete remission of symptoms. This experience exemplifies the importance of identifying giftedness in childhood as a guide for appropriate conduct, both in cultivating the good development of the child's skills and in promoting their emotional well-being.
