I’d love to hear other clinicians and their take on the new horror movie. I absolutely loved the acting especially from the female lead. I’d love to explore more what you guys think about how close the experiences are from clients or yourself to the actress in the movie!
Hi guys just looking for some insight on above. I have read a lot of Dostoyevsky work yet never really touched into any nihilist works. Although I do know that there’s a point of contention between the two. How do you guys generally view works and attitudes expressed by the man?
At 21 I weighed 115 Lbs and now I’m steady at 150Lbs
For context I’ve never been a big eater and would normally eat one average sized meal a day.
Then I met my bodybuilder GF who compete in NPC and she introduced me to the gym and healthier habits.
I’m big now, more confident, and healthier!
Hey everyone,
I’m currently navigating a bit of a sequential career path. I'm in a Master’s program for Clinical Mental Health Counseling right now, while also working through my biological sciences degree to eventually apply to medical school for psychiatry.
My ultimate goal has always been to practice both: I want to be able to prescribe medication but also deliver high-quality, in-depth talk therapy to my own patients rather than immediately referring them out. I want to use my Master's in Counseling and my LMHC to be a significantly better clinician and offer a deeper level of care to the people I work with.
That being said, I already know that psychiatrists do get trained in talk therapy. I know that modalities like CBT are baked into residency programs. Because of this, I'm starting to worry about how my current master's timeline fits into the bigger picture.
My main question for anyone who has navigated this intersection: Is acquiring my LMHC going to be truly worth it for my specialized goals, or will the time spent getting these clinical hours be seen as redundant or a "waste" when it comes to grad school, residency applications, and actual psychiatric practice?
Will having this counseling background actually give me the edge I'm looking for to better help my future patients, or am I overcomplicating my path to med school?
I'd appreciate any insight, especially from those who bridge the gap between psychology and psychiatry.
Thanks!
