I chose psychology as my major because I’ve always wanted to be a psychological consultant. Growing up, I’ve seen a lot of people who might have mental problems that they don’t even realize themselves. they don’t know they need to ask for help and most of them are ashamed to. I want to spread the idea that it is not shameful to admit you are in trouble and need help from professionals. So that’s basically why I want to be a psychological consultant.

Below are the types of places I want to work in the future, and hopefully, I will have my own clinic someday. The consultation room is supposed to be very comfortable and peaceful. I want to make my clients feel safe. And the reception area also needs to be clean and bright.

How should I achieve my goal? I’ve been wondering this question since I started studying this major. I believe currently what I can do is try to absorb everything from the class and study as much as real-life cases as possible, hoping to have more experience for various types of issues.

This is a link of an interview “Why Counselling Psychology?” from The British Psychological Society. The counselling psychologists in the video explain why they choose to be consultants and what’s counselling psychology really about. I can really relate to many of their perspectives.

My plan is to work at clinic run by others for at least 3 years, learning my experienced consultant and then consider opening up my own one. I believe with my academic performance and my endless enthusiasm for this area, I could achieve my goal in 5 years from now, being a professional psychological consultant.
