What is a Clinical Psychologist?
A clinical psychologist is a mental health professional who specializes in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of psychological disorders and mental health conditions. Clinical psychologists work with individuals, couples, families, and groups to help them overcome a wide range of psychological and emotional difficulties.
While other psychology specialties have a singular or at least narrower focus, clinical psychology tackles a wider range of mental health issues using traditional and nontraditional approaches.
Clinical Psychology is the largest specialty in the field of Psychology. A Clinical Psychologist works with patients on mental health issues, both emotional and behavioral. A strong sense of compassion for helping others overcome obstacles that plague their mental well-being leads many to a career in Clinical Psychology.
