Educational psychology is a branch of psychology that focuses on learning and development. Educational Psychologists work children and adults while considering the larger systems in which their clients function (families, schools, peer groups etc.). 

The main working area of the practice is alleviating: emotional, learning, academic, intellectual, behavioral, social and developmental difficulties, with the aim of promoting healthy and optimal functioning in their clients. This is done through assessing, diagnosing and treating pathology of behaviour, mental processes, emotions and personality.
