Therapy Career Pathways

This video is intended to share a brief overview of the many routes toward careers in the mental health helping professions.
I quickly overview four main career tracks (psychiatry (MD / DO), counseling (LPC), social work (LCSW), and psychology (LLP / LP)), three specializations within psychology (clinical, counseling, and school), and three psychology training models (scientist-practitioner (PhD), practitioner-scholar (PsyD), and clinical-scientist(PhD)).
I hope this video helps beginning clinical interviewers become aware of the many options and work toward narrowing down their desired path! For more information about mental health career pathways, check out my website: mimhhp.com/
