Clinical Psychologist Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last eight years working directly with clients who present a wide range of cognitive, emotional and behavioural challenges. In my current role I’ve built robust assessment pathways and formed treatment plans that translate into real change, such as significantly improving engagement in therapy for clients with anxiety disorders using structured, short-term programmes. I’m drawn to [Company Name] because your approach to integrated care aligns with how I practise. I routinely collect client data, administer diagnostic tests and interpret results to inform treatment plans. I’m comfortable collaborating with GPs and other psychologists to ensure consistency across care teams and I’m interested in how your early intervention projects could benefit from my experience with rapid data review and program evaluation. One recent case illustrates my methodology. A client with GAD and comorbid depression began with cognitive behavioural assessment and a personalised plan. I led the delivery of therapist-guided sessions and coordinated with a psychiatrist for pharmacotherapy review. Over three months, we tracked progress with standardised measures and adjusted the programme, which helped the client regain functional routines and reduce avoidance in daily activities. I would welcome the chance to discuss how my background fits your team. I’m available for a conversation at your convenience to talk through how I can contribute to [Company Name] and the next steps. Kind regards, [Your Name]
