Psychology is the study of the human mind. Generally considered a social science, it uses evidence-based research to understand the mental processes and behaviors of people as individuals and in all kinds of social groupings. Psychologists also study the underlying physiological and neurological processes that contribute to certain behaviors.

In the field of health, psychology is mostly concerned with how psychological, ... biological, and social factors affect an individual's well-being. Healthcare professionals with a background in psychology provide a variety of counseling and other services in hospitals, clinics, schools, and private settings. Clinical psychologists diagnose and treat patients with a variety of mental disorders and provide therapy to individuals undergoing personal problems. Psychiatrists are licensed to prescribe medication based on assessments of mental disorder. Mental health counselors provide a variety of counseling, rehabilitation, and support services to individuals, groups, and families with problems affecting their mental and emotional well-being. They advise patients on how to avoid illness by changing their behaviors and lifestyle. Psychologists and psychiatrists need to earn a doctorate in order to practice, while counselors usually get licensing concurrently with master's programs

Degrees in psychology are offered at every level of post-secondary study, from associate's to doctoral degrees. For individuals interested in a career in the expanding field of healthcare, a concentration in either clinical or developmental psychology would be the best fit. Clinical psychology is focused on mental health and disorder, and makes use of psychological assessment and psychotherapy to deal with a variety of issues that cause problems for individuals. Developmental psychology, on the other hand, is concerned with the development of the human mind through the lifespan. It is especially useful for individuals who plan to work with children or with the elderly.
