Career Plan
In five years I want to be in graduate school working towards my Psy.D. for Clinical Psychology.
In the first year I will take a gap year and do an internship to gain experience. In the following years I will start graduate school and apply for additional internship opportunities.
In ten years I plan to have my Psy.D. and start my own private practice for clinical therapy. I am not sure what I will specialize in yet, but I will aim to treat clients with trauma related issues. I will take this time to complete graduate school and continue gaining internship experience. The internships I am interested in are private practice placement internships which will allow me to gain clientele and teach me to run my business. Then I plan to complete my clinical practice certification and become a licensed Clinical Psychologist. After I receive my certification I will begin my career in private practice.
