A Day in the Life as a Psychologist

[@foreverphantom6881]

Psychologist are real every day heros. My favorite day of the week is when I get to spend 1 hour with my Psychologist. If you could please remember to thank them for their investment. They're amazing people. Honestly, the most amazing people . Thank you.

What advice would you give someone who is struggling to choose between the careers of clinical mental health counselor vs. clinical psychologist?

[@miki5152]

Good Afternoon! I'd like to thank you for posting this video, I found it extremely helpful for me as it helped show me that becoming a Psychologist is definitely something I'd like to do. It also helped me complete a job shadowing assignment for school. Thank you! Mikaela M.

What’s a basic timeline of your whole psychology career starting at college?

[@drkristencasey]

Great question. My first video discusses this in more depth, here’s a nutshell version: Bachelors: 4 years Masters: 2 years PsyD: 4 years (these are normally 5-6 years, I was in an accelerated program) 1-year post doctoral fellowship Total training: 11 years

[@swish7099]

Can you do a video on how you started your own private practice or why you decided to?

[@amyia9109]

Im going into my senior year of highschool and just decided im interested in being a psychologist or psychiatrist and i have not set my academic life up to get good financial aid in college… im so stressed😀 i need help

[@P.Mon432]

You are not alone I hope you’re able to figure it out and that your journey is successful and beautiful 😊

[@domenicruso8478]

I'm WRITING ,RIGHT

[@thefalsecritic9520]

What advice would you give someone who is considering studying either medicine or psychology?

[@drkristencasey]

I was in the same boat when I was considering career paths! I really had to figure out what my job would look like (e.g., daily routine, salary, location, opportunities other than my full time job, flexibility) in accordance to my values. For example, one of my values is human connection. I asked myself, “what would be the way to connect deeply with others in a helping role?” Psychology seemed to fit that for me personally. See my video on how I decided here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6LSoXWDrc9qaqM

[@thefalsecritic9520]

@@drkristencasey Thanks, I saw the video. The values thing is helpful!

[@jowyjozef]

​@@drkristencaseywe can't see this video on how you decided🙏

[@n.maharaj2079]

@psychthrive How would you suggest that you write progress notes quickly and efficiently?

[@keanugilbert6267]

I'm a 17 year old. I wanted to know at what age I can be a psychotherapist? Can I work at a hospital? If I get into a hospital , will I get a patient as soon as I get into the hospital?

[@priscillacarrasco7649]

what are the steps for private practice?

[@stephenshu9795]

Im in a M.A. in clinical psychology program applying for Psy D programs. Any advice for interviews?

[@drkristencasey]

Plan on uploading a video this Wednesday! Stay tuned

[@Espi115]

What advice would you give to a criminal justice major who’s looking forward to major in psychology for my bachelors?

[@temiymahs_World]

I’ve had my master’s for about 8yrs now. Would you suggest getting licensed before going for my doctorate or is it a waste of time? I’m a military spouse so moving around has made it a challenge to get licensed.

[@eyobedw1]

I have a question for you doctor, it's in the area of Empaths, basically empaths take on the energy of their environment. I don't exactly understand what that means. What's the energy they keep talking about. Also does that make me vulnerable to empaths, like if I want to keep my feelings private. Can I do it when I'm with an empath. It's scary to think someone reads you like an open book. Thanks any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@Kdivinity_]

Wait when did u star and finish school in general ? If u don’t mind me asking

[@drkristencasey]

Check out my video, how I became a psychologist. Basically, I started right out of high school in community college!

[@Siddharth-qb8dm]

Hey if u r a psychologist can u tell ans of my one qstn.....actually i am going abroad for studies but i am having one problem which is overexcitment, I'll just loose my mind n thinking power when I'll be there even though I am a good student n can study good n be a topper n all but still ik I'll get lost n would not be able to control myself..... Now when I am not there I am able to think conciously n intellegently but if I go there I'll loose my thinking power I'll do whatever I want .....I have faced loss bcoz of this ...... Can u tell y exactly is this happening?

[@zahraaminzadeh9340]

You are perfect😍

[@JoseRamirez-pt1sw]

Why?

[@shaltielreyes3906]

Can I become a PsyD if I have a MS in Mental Health Counseling?

[@drkristencasey]

I don’t see why not! I know someone who had a masters in counseling before their PsyD program. I’d think it would make you more competitive if you had a prior degree
