Education, Coaching and Training can benefit anyone.
Clinical Psychologists work with people in a wide range of areas, from direct clinical services to advertising, sports performance, employee retention, staff motivation and business and financial management.
That’s because the principles of cognitive and behavioral psychology are applicable to enhancing an individual’s entire life, not just “fixing” a problem. For example, behavioral health care, also known as behavioral medicine, is a special type of health care that utilizes psychological techniques and methods to help individuals recover more quickly from, or learn how to understand and better cope with, psychological and medical conditions. The goal is to help improve patients’ health and overall quality of life.
Behavioral health care techniques can be used as additional or supplemental treatments to regular medical treatments. These techniques are often also successfully used as the sole treatments for many conditions, such as anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, “bad habit” reversals and other problems.
Behavioral care can also help people heal by teaching how illnesses, attitudes, behaviors and emotional states interact to affect medical conditions and also influence responses to treatment, recovery and well-being. Behavioral care shows patients how to utilize behavioral and psychological techniques and procedures to change, remediate and improve their level of functioning and alleviate distress.
Psychological and behavioral therapies and services, much like surgery or dentistry, are individualized and specialized procedures requiring specific education, training and experience to be performed appropriately. Such therapy and treatment should only be sought from properly educated, trained and credentialed behavioral and psychological practitioners.
For more information on how to choose a licensed professional who’s right for you and your family, consider asking friends who have received behavioral or psychological treatment and also consider contacting the licenser board for psychologists, social workers, licensed mental health counselors or licensed marriage and family therapists in the state where you live. You can also refer to national associations such as the American Psychological Association.
