Clinical Psychology
Clinical psychology is about the understanding of mental disorders e.g. symptoms and causes. It teaches us how to make a diagnosis e.g. defining abnormal and normal and how a clinical diagnosis is given from gathering information from the patient – symptoms, how long they have experienced these, effects on their life, and their health in general. Forming a diagnosis from the information given – using diagnostic manuals
