Behavioural Psychologist

Behavioural Psychologists are registered psychologists who help their clients make meaningful and positive changes in their behaviour. They use attachment theories and psychotherapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to support children, adolescents, parents, and teachers, as well as adult clients.

As a Behavioural Psychologist you could be helping parents distinguish between naughty behaviour and mental health problems in their child, helping a client with autism develop the skills to make social connections, helping an adult resolve anger issues that originate from childhood trauma, helping a child manage Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), or attending an international conference for qualified psychologists.
