Clinical Psychologist Jobs in Tennessee

A Clinical Psychologist plays a pivotal role in the mental health industry by diagnosing and treating mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders in patients. They conduct psychological assessments, provide psychotherapy, develop treatment plans, and conduct research on mental and behavioral health conditions. They work with diverse patient groups, ranging from children to adults, and may specialize in specific areas such as substance abuse, trauma, or family therapy. The profession requires advanced skills such as effective communication, empathy, problem-solving, and the ability to remain calm under pressure.

Most Clinical Psychologists need a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) or Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) degree in psychology, a valid and current license to practice, and certification from the American Board of Professional Psychology. Prior to becoming a Clinical Psychologist, an individual may work in the roles of a Mental Health Counselor or a Social Worker to gain experience in a therapeutic setting. Others may start their careers as a Research Assistant or a School Psychologist, learning about human behavior and developing assessment skills.
