Day In the Life of Clinical Psychology Student | Year 3 | Renae’s Corner ~

[@passion_bonolo]

I really enjoyed this video, it gives me a clue on what to expect since I'm looking into applying for a masters in clinical psychology

[@RenaesCorner]

Oh cool. So I am not in a Masters program for clinical psych, so it might look a bit different!

[@issasecretsecret7814]

@@RenaesCorner I was just about to say that. It seems like you are pursing your doctorate not masters which is a big difference!

[@annay8300]

How do you make money in a psyd program and support yourself?

[@RenaesCorner]

so, I am not in a psyd program, so I can't speak to their experiences. But within my program, our external placements, research and teacher assistantships, and grants fund and support myself. I also do a bit of consulting work (here and there) for "play money."

[@VideosOfRandomContext]

How do you manage to stay in a PhD program for such a long time?? Like how’re you so dedicated and committed, and have u you lost interest at times and felt like you were going to quit??? I’m so curious O.o

[@RenaesCorner]

Great question!! There are definitely times where I feel like I want to quit, however, most of the time it's just because I'm stressed or overwhelmed with work. I think what's different about clinical psych phds is the clinical work that really helps drive me forward. Like having a really good therapy session or having a good supervision. I feel like my dedication and commitment is just apart of who i am LOL i know that sounds cliche, but I dont tend to give up really easily especially when its something I've worked so hard on. I also tend to keep in mind that the grad school experience is temporary (between 5-7 years) but being called doctor lasts forever hahaha.

[@aireona.343]

@@RenaesCorner great & encouraging response !

[@sherylsteinhauer6919]

I’m curious, how are the exams for each of your classes? Closed book or open book? Are they every two week increments? Is it similar to undergrad class schedules and exam schedules? Thanks.. I enjoy your videos!!!! 🙏

[@HeyItsAraba]

great questions that I'm also interested in knowing

[@RenaesCorner]

Hello! If you all could wait a couple of days - I can make that my next video for monday! :)

[@sherylsteinhauer6919]

Thank you! That would be super awesome!! I’d love to hear your experience first hand with your type of exams and assignments... 👏👏

[@RenaesCorner]

Sorry for the delay everyone (last week was crazy). But the video about finals is coming out tomorrow!! I also have another video about coursework all in the clinical psych debunked playlist! 💕

[@mohammadebrahimzadehmousav3202]

I do love these types of you vlog. Thank you so much. I have just one question; interviewing with new PhD applicant totally is done by you and your cohort? I mean, professors just select them and rest of the process is done by PhD students? I really appreciate your amazing information in advance.

[@RenaesCorner]

hello, thanks for watching! It really is a collaborative process. Students interview with two professors, and then 1 graduate student that is either within the lab they are applying to or with similar interests.

[@donayja]

What did you choose to specialize in? Im stuck between child, adolescent vs adult psychopathology.

[@RenaesCorner]

Ooo this is a great question! I have kinda always known that I wanted to work with children, because children were the reason I got into psychology in the first place. I think it's helpful to get experience with all populations, so you can make an informed decision. Once I worked with some adults - i knew immediately it was not for me! I hope this helps! :)

[@loonyonyeabor7324]

Nice

[@RenaesCorner]

Thanks so much :)

[@crazy4corbinbleux]

How many years total is this?

[@RenaesCorner]

My program total is 5 years (4 years of schooling and 1 year of internship), but then some other programs are like 5-6 years of schooling and 1 year of internship)!
