What it is

Psychotherapy with method and evidence.

Clinical psychology assesses and treats patterns of thought, emotion and behaviour that cause distress.

The psychologist does not prescribe medication. They use evidence-based psychotherapeutic techniques, often working alongside the psychiatrist.

When to seek care

When it may make sense

Early intervention makes treatment easier.

  • Constant mental effort, without being able to rest.
  • Loss, separation or a difficult change.
  • Anxiety, fears or panic attacks.
  • A complement to psychiatric treatment.
  • A difficult relationship with food or the body.
The first consultation
