The Clinical Psychologist is the official journal of the Australian Psychological Society’s College of Clinical Psychologists.

It publishes topics of broad general relevance to clinical psychologists working in clinical and clinical health settings around the world, including:
- Assessment of psychopathology
- Models and treatment of psychopathology
- Issues relevant to training in clinical psychology
The Clinical Psychologist operates a double anonymized peer review policy. Authors can choose to publish gold open access in this journal.

The manuscript and peer-review reports may be transferred to one of the other journals of the Australian Psychological Society ( Australian Journal of Psychology, Australian Psychologist, or Educational and Developmental Psychologist) if the scope of the paper is not found suitable for publication in the Clinical Psychologist, but is suitable for these other journals. Authors will receive a notification if their manuscript is being considered for transfer, and at that time can decide if they want to pursue the transfer. If authors do NOT wish to be considered for transfer to an alternative journal after rejection for this journal, this should be noted in the cover letter.
