Society of Clinical Psychology

APA members who are active in practice, research, teaching, administration, and/or study in the field of clinical psychology are invited to join the Division. Graduate students in APA approved or regionally accredited doctoral programs may become student affiliate members at a reduced rate. Membership includes a subscription to the journal, Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice, and the quarterly publication, The Clinical Psychologist. Members also receive a 25% discount on psychology books from Oxford University Press. The Division sponsors continuing education workshops two days immediately prior to the annual APA convention.

Members and student affiliates may also choose to join one or more of the division's sections: Section II: Clinical Geropsychology, Section III: The Society for a Science of Clinical Psychology, Section IV: Clinical Psychology of Women, Section VI: Clinical Psychology of Ethnic Minorities, Section VII: Emergencies and Crises, Section VIII: Association of Psychologists in Academic Health Centers (APAHC), Section IX: Assessment, and Section X: Graduate Students and Early Career Psychologists. Some sections also have membership categories for non-Division 12 members.
