I’m about to finish my BS in psychology and still trying to pin down exactly where I want to go from here. Your channel has been so informative, and you are a joy to watch and listen to! Thank you for doing what you do!!!
Thank you! Best of luck to you!
i am the same. have about a year left til I get my BS in psych. What are you currently thinking about pursuing?
Really appreciate all the free guidance, we get from you thanks so much and keep up the good work.
My pleasure!
I appreciate you mentioning the other routes. I’m currently in an clinical mental health counseling program. Ideally I would have loved to have done a clinical psych program. But when I saw where they were only accepting like six people and I had gaps in my undegrad, it did deter me, because in my mind I knew I couldn’t move for school, and couldn’t wait another application cycle and wanted to get things started right away.
I still love the idea of clincial psych as it allows funding and reduces loans for students. But if one can’t it’s important they weigh their other options. I appreciate this balanced perspective you give. I’m curious to know if you got full funding from your psy D program?
But thanks Phil either way!
That's awesome and thanks for your question. My PsyD program was not funded but there were some scholarships/grants that I was able to apply for, so it depends on each program, some may have other ways to offset the financial burden of paying for graduate school through other funding sources if they don't offer stipends/funding in a traditional sense.
Great video exploring alternative career options in the mental health field! We're impressed by your knowledge and expertise. We've sent you an email discussing a possible collaboration where we can provide additional insights and resources on mental health careers. Looking forward to connecting with you!
Thank you for that great video! It really clarified a lot of the questions I had before. Is it also possible to apply to a clinical psychology Psy.D. Program after finishing the licensed clinical mental health counselor Master?
Yes it is! Good question. Always good to also just double check programs website for necessary courses and prerequisites needed for application. Hope that’s helpful
I had a bit of a informal life coaching class with some of my friends who got out of prison didn't help them much lot of em died last 3 years
I watched a couple of your videos and it brings so much value information. I have a BA degree in Business Management. And i really interested in being a therapist. So is there any master program in psychology that does not require psychology BA degree ? Im willing to have a premaster class if needed
If you're in the U.S. there a lot of masters programs in psychology that don't require a BA psychology degree. There may be a few pre requisite courses that you have to take, so looking on the school websites may be the most helpful, or reaching out to the school directly via email. Hope that helps, best of luck!
Hey please help me out
My question
Is it compulsory to complete graduation from canada only to get license in future???
Hello Phil,
I have a masters degree in Human Resource and have 11 years of experience in Talent acquisition. I am interested in becoming a therapist. How can I peruse certification to become licensed practitioner
Great question! It really depends on where you want to end up. If you live in the U.S., there are state guidelines and requirements by a variety of mental health professionals, whether being a counselor, social worker, or psychologist/psychiatrist. Once you know what type of practioner you want to be you can follow the state guidelines to be licensed. Hope that helps!
Why is it called "mental health" when it's really an emotional issue?
Good question, mental health kind of encompasses not just emotional, but the physiological, medical, spiritual, components that can influence or impact psychological health. That's one way I've heard it described
@@philsguidetopsyd ok, its a good way to put it. I just get suspicious of the medical industry that is clueless in helping someone become emotionally stable.
