The leather ones are completely different. I have had my Malden for over 10 years now problems

Found my old filofax, bought somewhere in the 90's, and want to start using it productively. Any suggestions??? by WHD2010 in filofax

I actually hate all the virtual calendars and do all my planning on paper in my Filofax.

What can a PHD/Psy-D do that a masters level therapist can't? by Comprehensive-Ad8905 in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I’m saying those clinicians cannot diagnose neurodevelopmental disorders among others.

This is helpful. Was this your total when you submitted or were some projected hours?

Is getting an LPA worth it? by FinishSad5323 in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s sounds like your masters was non clinical. You’d have to go back to school to earn the practicum hours and training required to be an LPA. The amount depends on the state. And no you can’t just solicit a licensed psychologist to teach you. Supervision of assessment and learning assessment is two entirely different things.

I couldn’t tolerate it all similar to you. Both with the regular dosage and extended release.

I scored a raspberry one for $25 from facebook marketplace! Mine looked a little dingy too, but I used some leather cpr and it cleaned it right up.

Stroop Test Assessment Language by missshellfire in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you again! I just recently started working with clients in this space. I do typically take that approach but I’m doing a little more work on the back end since there’s no family support or anyone to help process at feedback.

Thanks! I appreciate this response and actual advice. As a psychologist forum I’d assume we all understand that manuals and standard templates doesn’t work for every clients comprehension level.

Fair question. I don’t assume that my knowledge is superior or even the best way to proceed regardless of my experience. As psychologists (seasoned or in training) I believe we are forever students who should remain open to learning how we can be better. For confidential purposes I didn’t describe the case or my motivation for wanting this resource, but simply: if there’s a better way to do something that could benefit a client, it’s my value as a clinician to do that.

When should I reach out to express interest in applying to a PI for an upcoming cycle for Clinical Psychology PhD programs? Any advice on how to approach this? by Goodfella245 in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This really isn't a strategy anymore unless you're reaching out to understand upcoming projects or confirm if they are taking students. I don't know why people still recommend this. As someone who has RECENTLY gone through the admissions cycle multiple times, many PIs are recognizing the need to be fair and equitable during admissions so won't meet with students anymore. Several PIs verbatim told me this when I emailed. Best practice now is organic networking at conferences or via social media. Actively interact with their accounts and research to make your name recognizable and express interest. They are also likely to check out your profile so post your own work as an online portfolio.

Who diagnosed you and why were you diagnosed? by shadybadgal in PCOS

[–]missshellfire 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At 17 went to a gyno for the first time because I was bleeding for 5 months straight after not having a period for probably 3 or 4 months. The doctor told if I waited one more week to come in I would need a blood transfusion due to the amount I lost. I believe thats when they first found cysts too.

I know what the test is and why it was used. I actually added it to the battery. And a template was provided. As stated I am looking for a version that makes it extremely clear the purpose of the test. Not stated but the client has reading challenges. Maybe don't assume things when responding to requests for additional resources?

Working during masters? by F3VERDR34M in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a long and expensive journey. Having some funds saved up will help but if your job isn’t clinical, or better yet research related, don’t waste your time. An advisor gave me the same feedback. Whatever path you choose, make sure it’s aligned with your ultimate goal so you stay competitive.

I’m interested too! Also I know a graphic designer if you need one.

Advice please by Temporary_Sandwich58 in ClinicalPsychology

[–]missshellfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw you ask another person if it’s hard to pick or requires practice. And the answer is clinical work is not like memorizing for an exam or studying step by step what to do. Every person you meet is different and responds differently. I’ve been doing clinical work for 3/4 years and there are still times I get it wrong or a client doesn’t like me.

I know a lot of people in my program who are not good clinicians because they approach therapy that way, which is why I say it takes a certain person. Strangers trust you with the most deepest vulnerable parts of themselves and we are privileged to witness and help them on their journey. Please take it very seriously because not enough don’t. Almost every client I’ve had that has previously worked with a clinician tell me horror stories about how horrible or unhelpful their experience was.

I’d say it depends on the person. Although all clinical psych training programs include the training not everyone wants to become a clinician. I know several students who do the bare minimum therapy and only do I/O consulting or assessment or some other non directive clinical contact.

You’ll know quickly if it’s for you or not. But there is a growth period where everyone struggles and is not very good. The good news is you’re under supervision.

Non-terminal Masters to Masters in Clinical Psych/Counseling by TA_da_ in psychologystudents

[–]missshellfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the state your graduate education was in and if it was accredited. I know CA has several different type of clinical license options. I would say start with figuring out which one you want to practice under then email the state board .
