Clinical Health Psychology
The study of clinical health psychology has emerged as a major exciting focus for clinical psychologists.
About The Clinical Health Psychology Research Focus
The clinical health focus is conceived within a broader general focus in health psychology and is further facilitated by multidisciplinary work with physicians, sociologists, biologists, and health educators. Students choosing the clinical health focus take specialized courses and do specialized clinical work in addition to their core courses. By combining clinical health psychology with these other areas students receive a broader focus and can sub-specialize in a specific area of health within this broader context.
The Clinical Health Psychology research focus is part of a broad Health Psychology research focus within the Department of Psychological Sciences at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø. Our health psychology faculty work together and graduate students often choose mentors outside their own training program. Many graduate students have secondary mentors that cross sub-disciplinary lines.
