@dr.erin.phd: Replying to @Elle Pierre968☺️ The process can be so daunting! Breaking it down piece by piece, starting with getting into grad school 👩🏻🏫 #psychology #gradschool #careers #phd #therapist
I really needed to hear that it’s not actually as competitive as it seems! I know you are clinical psychology, but do you have any specific advice or anything different you would suggest for getting into neuropsychology programs?

Alaina :
Could you go through the whole process of becoming a clinical psychologist? Like, from highschool classes or your bachelor all the way to getting licensed? I want to become a clinical psychologist but it is really overwhelming to me😅

the only thing i would add is (at least in illinois) people with counseling and school psych phds can sit for the licensing exam for clinical psychologists too!

I graduated from UCI with a psychological science BA, instead of psychology. Which focuses more on application, do you think that will affect my chances?

How long should you be Research Assistant to “look good”. Also did you do like any research proposals in undergrad?

I did have a question. Do I really need publications to be competitive? I’ve been a research assistant in one lab for 3 years and only presented once at a national conference last year. I’m in the middle of proposing an independent project that’s being reviewed by a subcommittee. The lab itself is VERY niche and specific to my research interests and the labs I’ll be applying to but I’m worried about the lack of tangible research experience like pubs and presentations.

When you finish your doctorate, are you only approved as a clinical psychologist in the country you did your doctorate, or once you finish it you’re considered a clinical psychologist almost everywhere?
