I need one that has sociology and psychology classes (my goal is to become a psychotherapist) and it must be in or near a city so modeling will be easy. I’m probably asking for a college that doesn’t exist but if you have some suggestions I would appreciate them. Preferably one that offers english courses in case I don’t get the hang of Swedish and German. (Stockholm University is already on my list)
I already am in Germany so traveling cost is not an issue.

i think i want to go into a career in psychology but im not sure if i should go for a masters or a doctoral degree. i am very interested in the clinical, therapueatic aspect of it and am very interested iin becoming a school psychologist or going into private practice and becoming a psychotherapist. the things that i am not interested in are things like: lab studies, psychiatry, working in an insane asylum, etc. so i was just wondering which one i should go for and which one would fulfill my needs better.

I’m thinking of becoming a psychiatrist but the thought of 4 years in university, 4 years in med school and another 4 in residency makes me think its not worth it. I’ll be 30 years old by the time I get the job (And its not guarantee) and the thought of all the money I’ll be spending makes me not wanna become one. Is it worth it? Or should I go with being a forensic pathologist?

hi,im 28 i have mental health issues which im presentley dealing with with the aid of a social worker, ive been refered for psychotherapy. but im living in a flat( apartment) with alot of youths who live locally. that hang around in gangs and they act very antisocially and aggressive and i feel threatened by them because they virtually live in my back pocket. i feel scared by them and they make the environment very provocating and threatening. and with me having problems with anxiety and controling my anger its making life even tougher to deal with. the youths shout and ‘growl’ obscenities. they act like they own the place and the area. they blast music r n b out at full volume all the time all times of night. im trying to hang in there and find somewhere else to live.. but i really dont need this when i have my own issues to deal with. : (

I am 17 (almost 18) and I have been depressed for over six years and I am scared of what I have become. Despite several years of good counseling and trying several medications, I still find myself extremely depressed, self harming and abusing drugs (not addicted but every day use of SOMETHING). Am I a good candidate for inpatient hospital treatment? If so, what is it like?

I graduated with a bachelors of science in biology (without a concentration/emphasis in a particular field of biology) and I am now wondering what else I can do with my degree. I was wondering if I could apply for a job as a physical therapy assistant now? Or will i need to go back to college for a few years or only complete a few more classes to become a physical therapy assistant? What class are most desired? Recommendations for online schools?? Thank you!

I work in an office building (not a hospital) and offer psychotherapy. The people I treat are coming to me because of psychological problems not medical illnesses. I am paid by a health system. The health system is mandating flu vaccines. Should I be forced to take the h1n1 and seasonal flu shots or lose my job? I was born before 1950 and the CDC says that the reason so few have died (<160) from this age group is that they have probably already been exposed. Does it is seem reasonable that this is such a medical threat that my rights to determine my own medical decisions should be suspended?

2 The RCMAS is a self-report of anxiety used with children. Scores range from 0–28, with higher scores indicating more severe anxiety
3 These data are from a self-report of self-efficacy in anxiety provoking sitations used with children. Scores range from 0–10 with higher scores indicating more self-efficacy.
4 These data are from a self-report of depression used with children. Scores range from 0–10 with higher scores indicating more severe depression.
5 Recovery was defined as a decrease to a score of less than 5 on the RCMAS at posttreatment or follow-up.
I also need help with answering some questions Anxiety disorders are the most commonly diagnosed disorder in children and adolescents. Fortunately, recent research suggests many youth with anxiety disorders can be treated using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In the past, anxiety disorders were traditionally treated with either psychodynamic therapy or a supportive type of therapy (a therapy offering encouragement and empathy but is not really driven by any particular theory of psychotherapy). Therefore, it is important to know how CBT compares to these types of treatments.
In the final project, you will write a research report addressing this and related questions. In order to write the report, you will use a small dataset to conduct the descriptive and inferential analyses. You will be writing the various sections of this report, such as the results section
T-Tests
Choose and calculate the appropriate analysis to compare the anxiety levels of the participants in the CBT treatment to those in the psychodynamic treatment using posttest scores only.
Choose and calculate the appropriate analysis to compare the anxiety levels of participants in the CBT group only at pre- and posttest.
Report your analyses in the APA format and write one to two sentences interpreting each of your results.
Someone please help me I am desperate for any help. I am so confused and the book does not really help me and I know many smart people here know exactly how to do this.. Thanks and God Bless you and I will gladly give points for the best help I can get

I’ve seen a counselor at my college a few times and she hasn’t helped at all. She doesn’t really ask many questions, she waits for me to talk and I don’t know where to start. She said she would try to help me and then decide if I need to see a psychiatrist. How does she decide? Should I just seek one myself? I have battled with depression, self-esteem issues, and troubling past experiences for a few years now.

I saw somewhere that a PA can specialize in Psychiatry. Do psychiatrists actually use PAs? I’m interested in psych, but would it be smarter to specialize in something else?
Thanks

I am doing online classes with Penn Foster for Physical Therapy Aide. In Minnesota it is not a requirement to have a degree for it but I’m using it for the knowledge part. I want to continue but have issues with going to a college (anxiety issues) and i want online classes to further my education. Does anyone know of an online college for Physical Therapy (even a bach. degree)
any advice will help, even those with a degree can let me know how long they went, job outlook and whatever else you can provide.

I mean, when it finally sinks in that the very first black president in US history is a total failure, the lines at my clinics will be longer than at the welfare office!
What I Say:
That’s right. Do what all good little liberals do. Censor, censor, censor.
