International Congress on Clinical and Counselling Psychology, 06-09 August, Istanbul - Turkey

The 2013 International Congress on Clinical and Counselling Psychology will take place in Istanbul, Turkey, on August 06th-09th, 2013.  This Congress will not only build on the success of previous C-crcs conferences and congresses, but will also seek to raise the bar in international exchange of ideas, collaborations, and cooperation among academics, clinical psychologists, counselling psychologists, and other practitioners.


The 2013 Congress will provide unrivalled opportunities for participants to rub minds and bounce off ideas with each other.  It will seek to facilitate discussions including challenges to clinical and counselling psychology internationally, providing a forum for scientific debate and constructive interaction in a multicultural environment such as Istanbul.  The Congress will provide a platform for educators, researchers, students, and practitioners to present their work; to exchange knowledge, ideas, and experience; and to identify solutions to existing challenges in clinical and counselling psychology globally. Doctoral candidates are particularly invited to present and discuss their research ideas and work in progress.
