PsyD stands for Doctor of Psychology. PsyD is a relatively new degree that came into existence because of growing concern that a simple PhD was not sufficient to produce psychologists ready for clinical practice. All these voices were heard at Veil conference in 1973.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who graduate from medical school, have a year of medical internship, and have 3 years of residency in the assessment and treatment of mental health disorders. Psychologists have a doctoral degree in an area of psychology, the study of the mind and human behavior. Theyâre not medical doctors. A psychologist can have a PhD in philosophy or a PsyD in clinical or counseling psychology. Typically, they do 1-2 years of internship. Unlike psychiatrists, psychologists are also trained in giving psychological tests (like IQ tests or personality tests).
