Clinical Psychology Graduate Programs Online

Clinical psychologists help people change their negative behaviors in order to live healthier lives. The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that the demand for clinical psychologists will rise by 11 percent by 2018. If you are considering an online clinical psychology program, it's important to determine whether the school is accredited by one of the six accrediting agencies of the United States Department of Education.
