What is “Clinical Psychology Today” ??
Clinical Psychology Today is a new Irish journal for Clinical Psychologists, circulated to subscribers with previous editions published online. It aims to provide a space in which Irish Clinical Psychologists can communicate the challenges and joys of this work. It seeks to publish pieces that outline new initiatives, explore and challenge current practice, and which provoke debate and discussion in the Clinical Psychology community. The journal is disseminated widely across all grades of Clinical Psychology in Ireland.
Articles submitted to Clinical Psychology Today are double-blind peer reviewed by a network of reviewers located across Ireland. As well as well as reaching a significant proportion of the Clinical Psychology community directly through a model of free subscription, it also further extends its reach through its commitment to being an ‘open access’ journal. Articles from past editions of Clinical Psychology Today are available through the links below and on the Irish healthcare article online repository ‘Lenus’ – see http://www.lenus.ie.
