Psychology
The branch of psychology that deals with normal and abnormal behaviors of people of all ages and tries to make sense of these behaviors is called "clinical psychology". People who specialize in clinical psychology are called "clinical psychologists". The main purpose of clinical psychologists is to reveal the underlying causes of human behavior and to overcome the problems by measuring and evaluating people's abnormal behaviors. Although physical health comes to mind when it comes to human health, human health cannot be considered separate from mental health. Those who work in the field of clinical psychology carry out their research in a very wide scope.
