A Day in the Life of a Virtual School Psychologist

[@christinaliu9141]

Thanks for making this video! :) I think it would be really helpful if you made a video explaining the virtual psych role and how it differs from a traditional role. I had a few questions: What made you decide to switch to a virtual role? What are the pros and cons of being a virtual psych? Do you feel you have better work/life balance as a virtual psych?

Hey! Thanks for asking, and I’m happy you enjoyed the video. I switched to virtual school psych for better pay, better work life balance, and to reduce stress / commute times. I am feeling the benefits of working from home everyday. I will talk more in an upcoming video

New video is up answering your questions (:

This is so interesting to see a virtual school psych's role! I would love to hear more about how you do testing virtually. For example, how do you do the block design on the WISC?! Love your vids

Thank you for coming back 😀!! I am in the process of completing my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology👏🏻 from Arizona State University. I am inspiring to become the best school psychologist ever. Can you make a video where you give your personal past experience or what do you recommend for students who have the plan to getting into Grad school. I have really wasted to shadow or assist a SPsych. Or a pediatric Psychologist who has their own practice yet I don’t know where to start. Many school districts don’t allow outsiders to be at school but what could be some ways that we could get a feel of this beautiful field. Thank you! Greetings from sunny SD, CA

just asking for an update, I graduated In may 2023 with my B.S in Psychology, as well as graduating from ASU with my M.S in General Psychology in Summer 2024 (few months from now). Did you learn any information on some good things to do in order to be a good candidate for a School Psychology degree (Ed. S?)

Hi! Is there anyway to talk to you personally about becoming a school phycologist? I am debating it so hard and trying to learn as much as possible before I go back to school
