Course Summary

**Course Overview** - In a time when mental health issues are increasing – and increasingly recognised – Clinical Psychology has never been more crucial. Playing your part starts right here. - A career in Clinical Psychology is seen by many as the pinnacle of a career in Psychology, with students attracted to the challenges that working with a wide range of mental and physical health problems can offer. - Graduates will often work with those facing anxiety, depression, learning difficulties or relationship issues.
