How does Counseling Psychology differ from Clinical Psychology?

Counseling psychology has a strong educational component. It challenges dysfunctional defenses and helps clients to achieve their potential. CP works on attitude change more than restructuring personality. Counseling psychology focuses on the positive strengths of fundamentally healthy individuals with dysfunctional parts of their life. In contrast, clinical psychology stresses remedying pathologies and treats individuals with serious mental illness. CP has more a client than patient oriented approach.
