The most popular types of Psychologists are
- Clinical (study and apply psychology for the purpose of understanding, preventing, and relieving psychologically-based distress or dysfunction and to promote subjective well-being and personal development),
- Forensic (experts in the application of psychological principles to the legal system),
- Health (behavioral aspects of physical illness and have additional advanced training in psychopharmacology, physiology, and rehabilitation),
- School (work in schools, state departments of education, hospitals, clinics and universities),
- Research (study cognitive and behavioral processes by experimenting on human beings and animals),
- and Sports (work mostly with professional athletes to enhance the athlete's sports performance).
*these are ones that I think MAY work more with disbled people. But, ALL fields may or may not, it depends on the practice and the individual case.
