I’d like to be a psychologist when I finish highschool, and I’m exploring the different types of paths to choose. It was really interesting to see all the work you have to do!
@@yuvrajrathod6535 both are pretty different. I think neuropsychology you’d be doing more research types of tasks where clinical you’d most likely be doing more therapy
I wish my school psychologist would talk to me. I filled out a form because I've been having sensory problems and troubles in the hallways that I think she could help me with, but no response.
@@kittencohort1766 you wouldn't be disturbing them its their job they owe you a reply atleast, they might be overwhelmed with work right now and nit be able to see you yet but i bet they have the time to respond to an email and make it so you have permission to wear headphones sunglasses or other sensory aids in school since its literally their job
@FrogsLikeFruitSnacks I did talk to the lead partner and I'm allowed to wear headphones, but I'm not provided a quiet space to work. I just don't want to overwhelm them with something that I could probably figure out myself.
You might wont see this but im 15 and thinking of getting s degree in psychology and i want yo become a therapist but im just not completely sureee because i already know by the time i go to college its going to be crazy expensive and i just wanted to know if it was worth it...
It’s only worth it if you’re going to go further in school like grad school or med school. A bachelors degree in psychology doesn’t get you much bc you will only be eligible for certain stuff. PhD or psych from grad school automatically allows you to do more which means make more. Or med school for psychiatry is an option which is the top paying psychologist.
psychologist major here i thought about kids therapy . but they dont get to speak their mind because parents are speaking for the little ones and what they do and i only wanted to deal with them but anything dealing with kids comes parent updates ( not a bad thing just dont want to deal with the parents esp if theyre lying saying the childs the problem when not ( been through this my whole life)) i loved this video . i see theres a lot you can be with this degree. how did you know which one to choose?

Hello how do you tell apart autism and BPD. Sorry for the questions I’m just curious also where does derealization come from and why doesn’t it go away?
I'm a 14 years old...I'm not sure but I was just thinking to study psychology..is it too difficult to study? And how much a person if get if they'll become a proper psychologist/therapist? Like base or starting?
Couple questions as I’m looking to pick this as gsce options ect!! - what are work hours like? - what is the salary like? -how expensive is the education n stuff to get to the job? (Idk if that makes sense lol) If you don’t want to answer them then dw!
@@schoolpsychmomtell them salary varies. theres tons of different roles being in this field everyone thinks its just being a " therapist" . which is not true they can become a police officer with a psychology degree ,also salary shouldnt matter. college is picking a degree you like its not like hs were forced to take classes you dont like . even getting a job making 200,000-300,000 thats not enough to live in this world lol. i loved your video❤
i cried at school and my school psycologist helped me today, well she is a councellor actually. I have adhd, autism and dyslexia and i also think i have teacher attatchment, and i have been chatting to her for 3 days each week because i have frequent panic attacks and i get sensory overload and i feel overwhelmed and stressed usually and i feel like hurting myself. do you have any tips on how to go clean and also how it would be easier for me to take compliments because i have negative thoughts and i can never take compliments. also why does my school councellor say that everything is always private and in between us,but then after our meeting she usually calls my mum . like im starting to get trust issues
School psychologists and counselors are different people but you can talk to both! They have to tell your parents if you’re at a risk of harming yourself/others or if someone is hurting you (this is to keep you and others safe). I would recommend talking to a therapist so you can talk about all of these things and get the help you’re seeking 🤍 I’m glad you’re already talking to school people too!! They’re a great resource.
@@schoolpsychmom they are. I wish you were my school psychologist , ur so kind could I have ur email so I could reach out to you. Also when I am at school sometimes I write letters saying I feel unsafe and I hate myself and I am stupid and ugly and dumb and I give it to other students to give to teachers but now that has put me on high alert, do you know why that might be and also do you have any tips on any coping mechanisms for if I feel like peeling my skin and hurting myself and also for panic attacks. Also the reason I write that I feel unsafe is because of my teacher attachment, when I don’t see a teacher one day, then I will feel unsafe so I write worrying letters to get out of class and run around the school so that the teachers will get the counsellor, because I get nervous asking for an appointment, could you also give me a tip on how to ask for appointments In person because I used to email for appointments but now she is telling me I need to go up to her office to book an appointment and I get anxiety going up because I feel like she will kill me, so then I freak out and run around school barefoot and then they call my mum and also another way I try get out of class is by putting ink on my hands , and a few weeks ago the school emailed my parents saying they were stressed out by me and I might be chucked out if I don’t stop
If you get a master's in school psychology would it be possible to swap into school counseling or do you need to go back to school? I know you said you did some counseling, but I'm referring more so to the guidance counselor position (unless your district just has you do both(?))
Also, what's the best undergrad for school psychology? I don't want to commit to psychology undergrad because I'm scared of not getting a job if I fail to get into grad school, would something like education/special education/social work be good? Also are there any good minors? Maybe Spanish or something, I don't know I have so many questions and I'm so indecisive about a career path I'm sorry :P
@@MahkAndCheese I just graduated from my school psychology program and I am starting my first year as a school psychologist this year!! From what I know, it is not possible to swap between school psychology and school counseling. In my first semester of grad school, the school counselor students and school psychology students took some of the same classes, but that was it. You would have to go back to school, but you might be able to get away with not taking some of the classes. Also, you need to complete practicum/internship hours. To answer your second question, in my experience, your undergrad experience can be anything related to the field. You can do psychology, child development, or education. In fact, your degree may not be related in the field at all. For me, I did my B.A in Liberal Arts with a concentration in Environmental Studies. I did have to take some psychology courses in my undergrad, but some school psychology programs do not require you to have a degree related to the field, HOWEVER, it may be helpful and some schools do ask for that. I was also extremely indecisive as well (you can probably tell from my B.A). I didn’t know that I wanted to be a school psychologist until my senior year of undergrad!! Maybe interview some school psychologists, attend open houses for school psychology grad school programs, or do some research on the field. It is okay to not know what you want to for the rest of your life when you are so young!
I agree with the other person, as a psychology undergrad, I regret that degree for so many reasons (and I don't think it helped me with school psych)! Special education would probably be great (and a couple of psych classes such as developmental, stats, abnormal psych, and intro I think? check programs). I also think a spanish minor would give you a major edge!! Social work would be indirectly helpful, but if you decide to take a different route when you graduate, the pay is pretty bad there with a bachelors. Some programs offer counseling concentrations so that you can do both
@@kyleighlevine-ib6un aww that’s what we are here for. Let her know you feel that way. We see people cry all the time. It’s a safe place for that and can be beneficial for you to process your emotions ❤️
@@schoolpsychmom well im trying to find one that live in Massachusetts but we can’t find one anywhere bc they all book do you have any idea to do about that. Bc I like talking to someone it just feel like I will start to cry when I hit the deep stuff and I don’t think people keep what I say private bc I’m only 15 and they might have to tell my mom .

get your parents to contact them and keep pushing. schools will try and ignore you because accommodating people is expensive
@@FrogsLikeFruitSnacks I don't know. I don't like causing a scene or disturbing people.
