Document Summary

Human services do therapy to help patients improve their function; must be licensed in the state they work in. They must pass a test in order to do this. Now they can do the same thing counseling psychologists do. Focus on adjustment of every day life: marital counseling; Now these people can do whatever they want. Community help people that have [mental] problems with law and traffic tickets, etc. School helping children adjust to school life (bullies, studies, etc. ) Forensic courts, legal systems, criminals; study the legal system, work in the justice system. If you are being tried for murder, you are more likely to be found innocent if you look better (face, clothing); this is the type of thing forensic psychologists study. Studies show that people like it better if the doctor physically touches the patient. Engineering the design of buildings and such.
