PROGRAM VISION AND PURPOSE

Beykoz University Clinical Psychology Master's Program is a program that aims to provide students with clinical skills as well as theoretical knowledge by providing them with a critical and scientific perspective that is committed to professional ethics. Throughout the program, students gain practical experience by receiving supervision in accordance with international standards and in the light of current intervention strategies. Students who graduate from the Clinical Psychology Master's Program are expected to contribute to public health as clinical psychologists equipped with proven approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The program, which provides education based on scientific foundations, aims to train psychologists who are sensitive to social problems, who can understand the individual and interpersonal relationships, and who aim to increase the psychological resilience of individuals through psychological assessment and conceptualization methods.

SUPERVISION

Supervision is the process of regular guidance and evaluation that professionals working in the field of psychology and mental health receive to support their professional development under the guidance of a more experienced expert. By receiving supervision, psychologists both support their professional development and ensure that they work with a more effective and ethical approach in the therapies they apply. For this purpose, in the second year of training, our students receive supervision from therapists who are experts in their field. The supervisor guides the students to help them develop their clinical skills, deal with complex cases and make the right decisions in ethical dilemmas.

Our clinical psychologist candidates have weekly meetings with their supervisors in small groups and receive feedback on the content of the interviews they conducted that week. Thus, candidates gain the ability to provide a more effective and ethical service to clients while providing professional development in case management.
