Key Summary
Introduction
Clinical Psychology (Master)
Clinical psychology is a field that applies psychological research and techniques in “clinical” settings. According to one simple clinical psychology definition, it’s “the study of individuals, by observation or experimentation, with the intention of promoting change.” Their field is “clinical” because it involves observing and working directly with patients in clinics and related settings. However, the practitioners may also work as part of a team of other health or social workers. Clinical psychologists meet with individuals, families and other groups in places like counseling centers, schools and hospitals. They practice in community health clinics and veteran service centers.
Most clients seek psychological services on their own accord. But clinical psychologists are sometimes appointed by courts or insurance companies to perform psychological assessment and evaluations that inform legal judgments. So clinical psychologists assess the mental health of inmates in prisons. Whatever the situation, they must be good listeners, highly skilled, and able to recognize mental and psychological disorders, and offer treatments. They must also be organized, as collecting data and maintaining accurate records of client sessions is part of the job.

Career Opportunities
Psychologists who provide clinical or counseling services are trained in a range of techniques and theoretical approaches, making hospitals, schools, counseling centers, group or private health care practices and hospital systems all good places to launch a career. Some psychologists working in clinical practice choose to specialize in treating those with chronic illnesses such as obesity or diabetes; others specialize in treating people with specific psychological disorders, such as anxiety, schizophrenia or depression. Others work with school children who have learning disabilities or in college counseling centers to promote wellness and academic success.
If you are passionate about working with special populations like children, the economically disadvantaged or seniors, you might consider looking at community-based organizations that work with these groups.
