It's possible. If it doesn't happen this year, reevaluate how badly you want it. Take the year to strengthen your application: Revise your personal statement, retake your standardized tests, and try to get some good work on your CV (volunteer, get some presentations at conferences under your belt if you have the research connections, build some new contacts). Don't fret about reapplying. I have spoken to many professors and current students who applied two years in a row...there's no doubt about it being a competitive field. Kind of makes you proud that it's not a cake-walk to be a clinical psychologist.
Although, don't go there yet...there's still hope for this year...
I'm a first-year in a funded Clinical Psych PhD program and absolutely love every aspect. It was worth the battle.
