Question by : What is the main difference between a, “Clinical Psychologist” and a, “Counseling Psychologist”?
It has been my lifelong goal to become a therapist and help people overcome their problems. From the research I have done, I have found that to be a Therapist, you need at least a Masters Degree in either Clinical Psychology or Counseling Psychology. I was just wondering if someone who clearly knows the difference could illustrate the differences. And also, are Ph.D’s available in Counseling Psychology?

What are mental health interventions? Mental health interventions are techniques or activities utilized to develop and assist individuals who suffer from mental health disorder(s). Mental health disorders are diagnosed mental conditions. These conditions can be behavioral, emotional or drug related. Some classifications of these disorders are: attention deficit and disruptive behavior, mood, alcohol related, cannabis related, cocaine related, hallucinogen related, etc.

When seeking help to better manage these disorders, a diagnostic assessment should be completed first. Once a diagnostic assessment has been completed, it is vital that you identify the appropriate professional to assist in the rehabilitation. When providing interventions to individuals with mental health disorders, it is important to individualize the type of care provided. Special emphasis should be on the individual’s preference. It is important to capture the individual’s attention by making the interventions suitable to things that they can identify with. In addition to properly diagnosing individuals with mental health conditions, there should be documentation identifying things of interest. Example: What are some things that you like to do; what do you want others to know about you; what are some things that you are good at; what are your goals (short and long-term). Compiling this information along with the diagnosis is known as a Service Plan.  Read more...
