Postgraduate training leads to a Masters or Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. The background and training of clinical psychology is rooted in the science of psychology.  Clinical Psychology is one of the applications of this science to help solve human problems. A clinical psychologist is an expert at helping people resolve personal, emotional and relationship problems.
