Psychology Counselling

It depends on the curriculum set by your college. However, Criminal Psychology and Counseling subjects are generally included in the BA Psychology syllabus. You can also check last year's syllabus of your desired college from their official website and see if they offer these subjects.

Clinical psychologists work specifically with the diagnosis of major mental illnesses, such as: depression, anxiety disorders and trauma focused issues. Clinical psychology programs include clinical internship, assessment experience and more therapeutic training. 

Counselling psychology focuses on any given maintainable emotional challenges, relationship issues and/or stress management. Counselling psychology is more focused on the client and less diagnostic. Academic training in counselling psychology includes an in-depth focus on talk therapy and supportive counselling.

The difference between clinical psychology and counseling psychology are:

• Clinical Psychology focuses on diagnosing and treating serious mental health disorders like depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia.

• Counseling Psychology helps people deal with everyday problems like stress, relationships, or personal growth.

•  The main difference is that clinical psychology deals with more severe issues, while counseling psychology focuses on general life challenges.
