This is such a great video detailing all the different pathways - a lot of students don't know this going into their degree. Thanks for posting

Hello! Great content :) I am wanting to go to hard school for mental health but not sure which degree is good for me! Could you do a video comparing and contrasting options? Psyd vs ma social work vs mhc!

Hey please help me out
My question
Is it compulsory to complete graduation from canada only to get license in future???

Why is it called "mental health" when it's really an emotional issue?

I had a bit of a informal life coaching class with some of my friends who got out of prison didn't help them much lot of em died last 3 years

I watched a couple of your videos and it brings so much value information. I have a BA degree in Business Management. And i really interested in being a therapist. So is there any master program in psychology that does not require psychology BA degree ? Im willing to have a premaster class if needed

Hello Phil,
I have a masters degree in Human Resource and have 11 years of experience in Talent acquisition. I am interested in becoming a therapist. How can I peruse certification to become licensed practitioner

I appreciate you mentioning the other routes. I’m currently in an clinical mental health counseling program. Ideally I would have loved to have done a clinical psych program. But when I saw where they were only accepting like six people and I had gaps in my undegrad, it did deter me, because in my mind I knew I couldn’t move for school, and couldn’t wait another application cycle and wanted to get things started right away.

I still love the idea of clincial psych as it allows funding and reduces loans for students. But if one can’t it’s important they weigh their other options. I appreciate this balanced perspective you give. I’m curious to know if you got full funding from your psy D program?

But thanks Phil either way!

Thank you for that great video! It really clarified a lot of the questions I had before. Is it also possible to apply to a clinical psychology Psy.D. Program after finishing the licensed clinical mental health counselor Master?

I’m about to finish my BS in psychology and still trying to pin down exactly where I want to go from here. Your channel has been so informative, and you are a joy to watch and listen to! Thank you for doing what you do!!!
