Most clinical psychologists and psychiatrists already work together constructively and cooperatively, although guerrilla warfare may descibe the situation in some areas. This outline of issues affecting work with clinical psychologists, looking not only at a mutual awareness of each others' profession-specific knowledge and clinical skills, but also at an understanding of mind-sets and value systems, is aimed at further improving working effectively together, while not glossing over actual and potential areas of role-confusion and conflict between the professions.
