I am 37 years old and returning back to School to further my education. Psychology has long been a passion of mine. I am finally ready to accept the challenge towards pursuing a Bachelor’s in Pyschology and possibly double majoring in Sociology. After I have some completed my BA I will continue on to the Master’s program.
During my years working in a restaurant in became very apparent that a majority of people struggle with mental health and they tend to be very verbal about problems. Many in the country struggle with mental health in silence. I have several goals which I know will need to be achieved in steps. Once I am able to practice therapy with clients, I will begin to collect and build data. Once I have done this I would like to move into the Experimental Psychology field. My goal would be to collaborate with peers to come up with new modalities or updated ones. Even as it stands, the field of Psychology has had a continued need for more to aid others.
I also have goals of writing books, personal and academic and eventually become a public speaker. Tony Robbins watch out!
