The degree of Doctor of Clinical Psychology is a professional doctorate in clinical psychology, awarded mainly in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The degree has both clinical and research components, and qualifies the holder to practice as a clinical psychologist in Britain's National Health Service and other clinical settings. It bears some similarities to the Doctor of Psychology degree in the United States.

In Denmark the corresponding degree is called "specialpsykolog" or "specialist i **".

In the Netherlands the corresponding degree is "gezondheidszorgpsycholoog".

In Spain, the postgraduate training in Clinical Psychology is carried out as 4 years intern residence within the National Health System and the title obtained is "Especialista en Psicología Clínica ", usually abbreviated "EPC".
