Abstract: In this work, we will deal with the current state of philosophy applied to \nthe epistemology of the sciences of mental health. At present, the holistic view in \nthe sphere of philosophy of mind based on the materialistic monism or philosophical \nphysicalism prevails. It is well known that the philosophy of mind tries to build a \ntheory about the mental. In order to synthesise, philosophy may and must have \nan important and fruitful impact on science and therefore on psychopathology, \npsychiatry and clinical psychology, as it has been happening historically. In \nparticular, phenomenic conscience refers to the subjective experience that enables \nthe fact of realising about what shapes reality. In this article, we underline that an \napproach of mental health that incorporates the knowledge provided by medicine, \npsychology, phenomenological philosophy and the philosophy of mind is needed.
