| COUNSELING PSYCHOLOGY
Counseling psychologists, like clinical psychologists, are interested in
the treatment of mental disorders. The main difference between the two is
that counseling psychologists are concerned primarily with "normal"
problems of adjustment or challenge, such as choosing a career, experiencing
academic stress, or coping with marital problems. Counseling psychologists
do counseling/ psychotherapy, teaching, and scientific research with individuals
of all ages, families, and organizations (e.g., schools, hospitals, businesses).
They are particularly concerned with the role of education and work in an
individual's functioning, and with the interaction between individuals and
the environments in which they live. These psychologists often work in academic
settings, community mental health centers, hospitals, or private clinics.
