Overview

The Advance Diploma in Clinical Psychology builds on an undergraduate psychology foundation with focused study of psychopathology, psychological assessment, and therapeutic intervention techniques. The program is structured for BS/BA Psychology graduates seeking deeper clinical specialization before entering practice or continuing to MS/M.Phil-level study. Students gain supervised practicum exposure in clinical and counseling settings, applying assessment and intervention techniques under experienced faculty supervision rather than studying theory alone. This practical grounding prepares graduates for assistant-level roles in clinical psychology, psychiatric support, and school counseling settings across Pakistan's growing mental health sector.
