ProviderMacquarie UniversityClinical psychologists are experts in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of psychological and mental health issues across the lifespan. They are most often involved in the design and implementation of treatment strategies in settings such as primary care, psychiatric hospitals, community based mental health services and private practice, but also may be involved in research and teaching. The Master of Clinical Psychology will provide you with the skills, knowledge and training you’ll need to practice as a qualified clinical psychologist. As a graduate, you’ll be an expert in the delivery of a range of psychological therapies, and have additional skills to also engage in pursuits such as consultation, public policy, forensic testimony, and program development and administration.
