*Peace, gems in this convo thanks. Any other questions to ask, when a melanated individual is looking for a therapist?*

This was great information!! Thank you!!

Thank you so much for this! I’m earning my undergrad at a very small school who is not equipped to manage research experience opportunities; so, despite being in the latter half of my junior year, I only just recently learned about research experience and its requirement to get into PhD programs, and I’m frantically trying to learn as much as I can about it all so that I can get in as much research as I can before I graduate. How exactly do you find research opportunities? And how many would be considered “above and beyond”? Or what is an average amount of research experience that accepted PhD students received prior to submitting their applications?

Hi Dr. Walker, I noticed that you no longer post on this UA-cam channel. Do you post videos anywhere else?

Keep posting videos… maybe one of speaking at a event

Hi Dr Walker, I'm 63 and sort of retired. I'm thinking of maybe starting a 2nd career. My original career was as a Silicon Valley software engineer but I'm burned out on that. I noticed about myself that when talking to friends about their problems, I try to delve into and really understand what's going on so that I can help them. It is natural for me to really probe them in order to come up with solutions. Do you think at my age, I could have a 2nd career? It's not so much about the money for me since I'm somewhat stable right now (although extra cash never hurts). Also, I have a PhD in computer science. Do I need to do another dissertation in order to get a PhD in psychology or would grad work + training be enough? (I'm leaning towards PsyD) I would definitely appreciate hearing your point of view!

Just heard u on breakfast club I had to come check you out. I def plan to buy your book when I get few extra coins

Hi Dr Walker!!!!!! I'm currently reading your book. The book and YOU are a true inspiration. Truly one of HVJ's Finest !!! So proud of you!!!

Thank you for this. It was very helpful.

Love this! This message is so needed.

Thank you Dr Walker! I've read your book and I purchased it for several others and I highly recommend it as well. Truly a life changer and saver.

I’m currently reading your book 💯

information very eye-opening, focused, and well-spoken --- thank you!

A noodle just rolled off my plate onto my phone and subscribed. It was meant to be. I'm on my final 2 chapters of The Unapologetic Guide To Black Mental Health. I needed to finally pair a voice to the words, so I found this video. Very insightful.

FBA pain has now become normalized worldwide entertainment.

Yikes... and then their are the psychologist on the planet who don't research that it's impossible to choke and kill someone from behind the neck, and thus treat her patient for a trauma that never happened based on a lie... in essence we have to be able to diagnose the situation accurately to know what we are treating.. I'm sure this will unfortunately offend you bu5 my issue with psychologist is they are under deep illusions themselves 🤷🏽‍♀️ Thank you for this video though i certainly agree with the need to break the stigma that prioritizing your mental health means you are crazy... although it definitely means you are acknowledging you have a mental illness potentially and thats ok because many of us are walking undiagnosed including psychologist ❤ lol. However healing is a gift to self and everyone around you...

Doc you are my twin (in our thinking) appreciate your book. Thank you for your expertise ❤

Thank you so much for addressing mental health issues and the stigma (fears) involved. However, as an FBA, I have never experienced "brown people" or "new amerians" difficulties in this country as being closely related to my what I have experienced.

Thank you Doctor!!!!

Question: what if I’m wanting to apply after 3 years of working in the industry (HR Tech) and am wanting to pivot

You look 30 - how did you get your PhD in 2002?

Hi Dr. Walker. Thank you for this straightforward video. I have a 3.4 BA in Sociology, taught in urban schools for 6+ years, and am looking to get admitted into a clinical psych Ph.D. program. What do you recommend I do to get into a Ph.D. program?

Hello Dr. Walker, we just purchased 10 more of your books. If possible i would like to order several cases from you. please advise the best way to accomplish this purchase. Ase' Redwing

Thank you. This video was very informative.

Educated, yes! Articulate again yes! Enlightened, no! Racist counselor yes! Counselors and educators’s are supposed to meet people where they are in life and use their abilities to help people get to where they want or need to be. Preaching separatism in a country divided is only creating hatred and chaos. Shame on you! Divisive propaganda to create more fractures in a country that needs unity.Good counselors know everyone has a story or life experiences. Had you applied this to Asians, Latinos, and yes white or even more politically correct Caucasian Americans, you would be a credit to your profession. The black population does not own the racism card. It is shared through many cultures and subgroups of minorities and majorities. We can’t change the past but those willing to come to the table to change the future in a positive humanitarian light has the psychological and mental fortitude that deserves recognition. You are a discredit to the real counseling professionals that willingly get their hands dirty and hearts hurt helping their fellow human brothers and sisters out. You are compounding the problem and creating civil unrest by giving a reverse racism threats on good hard working Americans that work their butts off to make America a better place. People serve in the military being a band of brothers and sisters protecting our nation from foreign and domestic threats. Counseling 101: hurting people hurt people. Doesn’t matter the color. Work from there…I choose not to be an extremist from the left or right wing. My colleagues and I choose to teach and counsel people based on the the Good Samaritan principle of doing what is morally and ethically right. I prefer to help people to succeed in life by engaging their minds and giving them the tools they need to becoming better contributing members of society without focusing on skin color. Barack Obama was not voted in because he was black or a racist. No he was voted into office because he had a vision that included everyone and a commitment to make change in a professional capacity based from his life experiences. You can learn from him. As an educator you don’t have time or energy to come to the table to help people understand racism?? You are playing the part of victim and not part of the solution. You are smart, savvy, and articulate. Everyone is suffering since the pandemic and becoming a domestic threat to innocent people by your rhetoric is only making the problems bigger than they have to be. Stop cancelling other people that can use your message just because of their skin color.

I have found the professors to be extremely arrogant and simply don't respond to inquiries for volunteering in their research labs. So it is a Catch-22. You want candidates with research experience in your specific field of study, but you wont respond to students looking to volunteer their time for free to help you. So you really cant win. I finally found one really nice professor who allowed me to work for free with him, but it is not an area specifically I want to pursue my own degree in. I am interested specifically in treating, and doing research in, adult females with autism spectrum disorder who are also faced with trauma and chronic depression and anxiety, but I am a research assistant in the aging mind and memory. Go figure. It is so discouraging to be blown off on a daily basis when I would just like to ask questions on how to get to my end goal. And why would a student apply only to study what a professor has already studied, when there are many other possible areas they could work in and contribute scholarly work?

Great information! Thank you for making this video 🙂

Where are some suggest to apply to volunteer for research ??

What is some advice for someone who obtained a MSc. in Criminal Justice that would like to transition into obtaining a Ph.D. in Psych? What are some career choices? What are some differences in obtaining a certification, rather than going into a Ph.D program?

Greetings Dr.Walker I have been feverishly looking for a therapist for sometime now I have two questions is there a substantial difference between a edd phycologist and a masters degree and its my understanding that its about the connection between the practitioner and patient because i found someone uses sliding scale but he accepts cash due to his license being suspended he is highly accredited and qualified is the suspension a automatic deal breaker? Thanks.

🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Keep doing what you are doing!!!

Very much needed!!!!

So helpful, thank you!!

Great information, thank you for sharing.

Grateful for this

Please everyone do not engage in research on animals or monkeys, highly unethical!

im on chapter 9.. Love this book. I was googling to see if there was like a worksheet to go along with the book when I came.across this video..

Thank you for this video! I was wondering if you could help me decide when to apply for PhD programs. I am graduating this May but I only have a semester worth of research. There wasn’t much time for research because I graduated in three years rather than the four. I have a 3.5 GPA. My plan is to take a gap year, do some research, and some volunteer work as well. Should I apply this Fall or wait to apply next Fall in fear that I won’t have enough on my resume?

Hey Dr. Rasheeda, is it easier to get into a phd program if you already have a masters degree? Vs entering a phd right after obtaining a bachelor’s? Also, how long of research experience do I need to get my phd? And is there a way to get this experience without being a student?

Does this also apply to Developmental Psychology?
