What Does a Psychologist Do?
Psychologists study human behaviour, cognition, and emotion. Counselling psychologists help individuals with relationship issues, career transitions, and personal growth. Industrial-organisational (I/O) psychologists improve workplace productivity, team dynamics, and employee wellbeing. Unlike clinical psychologists who treat mental disorders, counselling and I/O psychologists work with healthy populations facing normal life challenges.
