| | Clinical psychology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Clinical psychology is the application of psychology to problematic mental distress in a health and social care context. | | | Clinical psychology developed partly as a result of a need for additional clinicians to treat mental health problems, and partly as psychological science advanced to the stage where the fruits of psychological research could be successfully applied in clinical settings. | | | Clinical Psychologists assess mental health problems; conduct and use scientific research to understand mental health problems; develop, provide and evaluate psychological care and interventions (psychotherapy). |

| | Classics in the History of Psychology -- Witmer (1907) |
| | Clinical psychology likewise is a protestant against a psychology that derives psychological and pedagogical principles from philosophical speculations and against a psychology that applies the results of laboratory experimentation directly to children in the school room. | | | For the methods of clinical psychology are necessarily invoked wherever the status of an individual mind is determined by observation and experiment, and pedagogical treatment applied to effect a change, i.e., the development of such individual mind. | | | While the term "clinical" has been borrowed from medicine, clinical psychology is not a medical psychology. |

| | Clinical psychology doctoral programs are more numerous than counseling psychology doctoral programs: In 1999, there were 194 APA-accredited doctoral programs in clinical psychology and 64 APA-accredited doctoral programs in counseling psychology. | | | However, clinical psychologists more frequently favored the behavioral and psychoanalytic (but not psychodynamic) persuasions, and counseling psychologists the client-centered and humanistic traditions. | | | Clinical psychology graduate programs are almost exclusively housed in departments or schools of psychology, whereas counseling psychology graduate programs are located in a variety of departments and divisions. |

| | However, with changes in health-care insurance the future of clinical psychology practice as we know it today is unclear, and students would be well advised to talk with practicing clinical psychologists before making a commitment to pursue a career as a clinical psychologist in private practice. | | | This is an uncertain time for clinical psychology practice, largely because of ongoing changes in health-care insurance. | | | Although some of these students enter traditional PhD clinical psychology programs, others enter the more recent PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) programs, which generally have a stronger emphasis on hands-on training in clinical assessment and therapy, and a weaker emphasis on clinical research. |

| | As clinical psychology grew, it became strongly influenced by the treatment principles of psychoanalysis which place a large emphasis on unconscious functioning. | | | Usually, the degrees associated with clinical psychology are the traditional PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) —which involves training in both clinical treatment and research—and the newer PsyD (Doctor of Psychology)—which emphasizes clinical training and minimizes training in research. | | | The practice of good clinical psychology involves something—call it comfort—which does not mean sympathy or soothing, and it certainly doesn’t mean to have your pain “taken away.” It really means to be urged on to take up the cup of your destiny, with courage and honesty. |
