What does a day in the life of a practising clinical psychologist look like? Which therapeutic approaches do they use? How do you become a clinical psychologist?

Answering these questions and more, An Illustrated Guide to Clinical Psychology is ideal for aspiring, trainee, and newly qualified clinical psychologists to learn more about the field.

Written by clinical psychologists, and featuring illustrations by one of the authors, Juliet Young, this accessible book explores the history and context of clinical psychology, the key skills, tools, and theoretical foundations for clinical psychologists, and the main therapeutic approaches that they use. The book navigates through the necessary components to understand the underpinning elements of the profession, with a taster of different areas that clinical psychologists work in. Through a critical lens, it also explores topical debates within the profession and addresses issues of diversity and inclusion.
