The Clinical Psychology service is a one on one therapeutic intervention focussing on the scientific training and strategy based treatment of clinical disorders. Although some people who have such disorders may also use medication, Psychologists use other skills training methods of treatment.
A common focus of a Clinical Psychologist is training others in how to overcome depression and anxiety as well as overcoming emotional hurt and anger.
