By understanding psychological factors that influence health, and constructively applying that knowledge, health psychologists can improve health by working directly with individual patients or indirectly in large-scale public health programs. additionally, health psychologists can help train other healthcare professionals (e.g., physicians and nurses) to use the knowledge the discipline has generated, when treating patients. Health psychologists add a spread of settings: alongside other medical professionals in hospitals and clinics, publicly health departments performing on large-scale behavior change and health promotion programs, and in universities and medical schools where they teach and conduct research.
Although its early beginnings are often traced to the sector of psychotherapy, four different divisions within health psychology and one related field, occupational health psychology (OHP), have developed over time. The four divisions include clinical health psychology, public health psychology, community health psychology, and important health psychology. Professional organizations for the sector of health psychology include Division 38 of the American Psychological Association (APA), the Division of Health Psychology of British Psychological Society (BPS), the ecu Health Psychology Society, and therefore the College of Health Psychologists of the Australian Psychological Society (APS). Advanced credentialing within the US as a clinical health psychologist is provided through the American Board of Professional Psychology.

Psychologists who strive to know how biological, behavioral, and social factors influence health and illness are called health psychologists. Health psychologists use their knowledge of psychology and health to market general well-being and understand physical illness. they’re specially trained to assist people affect the psychological and emotional aspects of health and illness. Health psychologists work with many various health care professionals (e.g., physicians, dentists, nurses, physician’s assistants, dietitians, social workers, pharmacists, physical and occupational therapists, and chaplains) to conduct research and supply clinical assessments and treatment services. Many health psychologists specialise in prevention research and interventions designed to market healthier lifestyles and check out to seek out ways to encourage people to enhance their health. for instance, they’ll help people to reduce or stop smoking.
