Psychologists
Psychologists have the therapeutic expertise and professional training to assist individuals in learning to deal with life’s challenges and mental health concerns more successfully. They are granted a license by their states to provide a variety of services, including assessments and psychotherapy, after years of graduate school and supervised training. The finest available research is used by psychologists to develop a range of strategies that take into account each individual’s particular values, traits, objectives, and circumstances.
When compared to other health care professions, psychologists with doctorate degrees (either a PhD, PsyD, or EdD) have one of the highest levels of education, having spent, on average, seven years in school and training after receiving their bachelor degrees.
