Overview About “Psychology: Themes and Variations 10th Edition”
Psychologists often work in private practice, where they can determine their own hours. Their client base is varied, but typically includes children, adults, and families. Although most psychologists are not physicians, they often perform psychological evaluations to help diagnose mental or emotional conditions. They may also refer clients to medical practitioners or other specialists when necessary. Some licensed clinical psychologists choose to specialize in a certain area of psychology. For example, some may focus on health care issues (like addiction) while others might limit their practice to counseling children or families. In private practice, these professionals set their own prices for services based on what they think they can charge; if they go into business with another psychologist, therapists might split profits evenly or run things like a partnership.
