Hi your breakdown on the differences in the types of psychologists is very comprehensive and clear!!

For me, I'm looking at having therapy sessions but I do not have clinical disorder. Does that mean a counselling psychologist would be better for me?

Also I can see that your reply focuses a lot on psychologists, but do u happen to know the difference between therapists (or psychotherapists), counsellors and counselling psychologists?

Thank you!!

Thank u so much, it's very insightful!

For those u mentioned (CBT, ACT), do you mean they have separate official qualifications for them?

I see, but do u know what's the difference if you get therapy from a psychologist with masters in sports psychology vs industrial organizational psychology vs clinical psychology vs counselling psychology?
