I have a counseling session tomorrow, & this will be my 2nd time going to this woman. I’ve been in counseling before, but I’m just nervous about this particular woman because she sort of doesn’t understand what I’m going through, & the reason why I’m afraid is because I’m afraid we might have a disagreement & I might have a panic attack & get put in the hospital, & that’s the LAST thing I need.

I know her job is to try to help me & everything, but she doesn’t exactly understand what I’m going through, & I don’t feel comfortable with speaking to her. Instead of trying to help me, she blamed me for my problems & tried to make it like I deserved to go through the abuse I’m experiencing. What kind of counselor is that?! BOY I tell u, some people are just into their jobs for the money. If she doesn’t like her job, then maybe she should tru to find a different profession. Should I give her 1 more shot or cut her loose & try to find a different counselor?

Hello. I just got my bachelors in psychology and I’m not sure whether I should continue to a masters program. I found studying psychology interesting but I’m not really sure that I would enjoy it as a profession. Also does anyone know what I could do with a masters in psychology besides traditional counseling and teaching? The others things that I’m interested in are literature and philosphy but really the only thing I could do with that is teach and I don’t want to be limited.

My recent ex and I did. Really, what good is it? Obviously in any troubled marriage, the problem is, the other person is doing or not doing something that is upsetting the other. All they do is reiterate that.
They never come out and say "Look, nobody can live with you lady if you endlessly think your husband is a cheater, when you have no reason to believe this.!" I was open and honest about my flaws and was willing to work on them, but I can can’t defend myself against something not actually going on.
I’m just wondering if anyone else benefited from this seemingly useless profession.

I worked as a welder for 14 yrs. I am graduating from a Massage Therapy program soon. How do I use my past job skills in my new profession?

This type of relationship is getting very popular with educated men these days. For a lot of educated men in their 20′s like me, it is the only type of living with a woman relationship, that we would consider. (By "educated", I mean degree and profession).

Men are too heavily discriminated against in education, work and marriage these days to consider marriage a viable choice.
Benny – "no children" means no children. You are a fool to father children these days.

I need to brainstorm some idea about this question. I have a few things in mind but if anyone is a counselor or in a helping profession where you interview please let me know what some mistakes are that first timers make.

Also if you have been interviewed for counseling purposes and something the interviewer did put you off, made you uncomfortable, or anything that you felt was just not right please share so I can get some more ideas.

This has nothing to do with job interviews, only counseling and helping professions.

Thanks Everyone!

1 what profession are you both in?
2 how long did you date prior to marriage?
3 first marriage?
4 how old were you both when married?
5 how many years married?
6 happily married/divorced?

Thank you

I am currently a pre-med student but recently I have become more and more interested in psychology.

What does it take to be a counseling psychologist?
What is the schooling required? How long will it take? How much does this profession get paid? What else can you do with a PhD in psychology?
