AQA Psychology - Clinical Psychology and Mental Health

Описание: Clinical Psychology & Mental Health – Description

This Clinical Psychology and Mental Health resource explores how psychological disorders are defined, diagnosed, explained, and treated, combining scientific theory with real-world understanding. It introduces key mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety disorders, phobias, OCD, schizophrenia, and stress-related disorders, while addressing how these conditions affect thoughts, emotions, and behaviour.
The topic examines classification systems including the DSM and ICD, alongside debates surrounding diagnosis, labelling, and stigma. Students are guided through major explanations of mental illness, including biological, behavioural, cognitive, and psychodynamic approaches, with clear links to research evidence and practical examples.

Treatment approaches are explored in depth, including drug therapies, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), behavioural interventions, and modern psychological therapies, allowing learners to evaluate effectiveness, ethical issues, and real-world applications.

Designed for A-Level Psychology students, independent learners, and anyone interested in mental health, this resource supports strong AO1 knowledge, AO3 evaluation skills, and a balanced, compassionate understanding of psychological disorders.
