Clinical Psychologist Business Cards for PhD and PsyD Licensed Practice

Clinical psychologists are the doctoral-level mental health professionals who specialize in the assessment and treatment of psychological, emotional, and behavioral disorders — providing evidence-based psychotherapy, psychological testing and assessment, neuropsychological evaluation, behavioral interventions, and consultation across healthcare settings. Unlike psychiatrists (who are medical doctors with prescribing authority in most states), psychologists focus on psychotherapy and assessment; in some states (Louisiana, New Mexico, Illinois, Iowa, Idaho) appropriately trained psychologists can also prescribe psychiatric medications after additional training.
