What does a clinical psychologist do?

A clinical psychologist specialises in assessing, diagnosing, and treating mental health conditions. They often work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, or complex psychological concerns. Clinical psychologists use advanced therapeutic approaches like CBT, schema therapy, and trauma-focused therapy. In Australia, clinical psychologists complete postgraduate training (Master’s or Doctorate) and have expertise in both research and clinical practice. Their role is critical in supporting individuals with more severe or long-term mental health needs. For specialist clinical psychology services, book a consultation now.
