Clinical Psychology
Therapy and psychological assessment from doctoral-level mental health providers.
What does a clinical psychologist do?
Clinical psychologists provide psychotherapy and psychological assessment for conditions including anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, panic, grief, chronic pain, sleep problems, and adjustment difficulties. They are trained at the doctoral level (PhD or PsyD) with several years of supervised clinical practice before licensure.
Unlike psychiatrists, clinical psychologists generally do not prescribe medication. Their work is psychotherapy and assessment, often using evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), or trauma-focused therapies. Many work closely with prescribers when medication is part of a patient's care.
How to choose the right psychologist
Three factors matter most: (1) their training and experience match what you're working on — a psychologist who treats trauma daily is a different fit from one focused on health psychology, (2) they're in-network or you can afford the out-of-network rate, and (3) you feel reasonably comfortable with them within the first few sessions. Therapy works best when the relationship works.
If you are in crisis or having thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, do not search a directory. Call or text 988 (the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) for free 24/7 support in the U.S., or go to the nearest emergency department.

Frequently asked
What's the difference between a PhD and a PsyD?
Both are doctoral degrees that qualify someone to be a licensed clinical psychologist. PhD programs lean more research-heavy; PsyD programs lean more practice-focused. In day-to-day therapy, the degree letters matter less than the psychologist's experience with your specific concern.
Is therapy covered by insurance?
Most commercial plans, Medicare, and many Medicaid plans cover therapy with an in-network provider. Confirm coverage and any session-cap rules with your insurer. Some psychologists are private-pay (out-of-network) and will provide a superbill for you to submit for partial reimbursement.
How long does therapy take?
It depends on what you're working on. Targeted, evidence-based protocols for specific issues (a single phobia, time-limited CBT for insomnia) can be six to sixteen sessions. Broader concerns or longer-standing patterns may take more. A psychologist should be willing to discuss a rough timeline and reassess with you periodically.
