You are a waste, but also psychology, psychology to a high level of understanding, not as good as accounting to learn, accounting knowledge is dead, as long as you work hard, you can get results, psychology is not high, nothing can be achieved, you children how to see everything is so simple, solid, daydreaming all day long!

It's actually pretty good to see how you're doing. There are many choices in life, but it also requires a lot of trade-offs, and there are many people who have their own hobbies but don't necessarily have to do it. Once the hobby becomes a job to earn a living, it is not much fun, so it is recommended that you carefully consider your development and the conditions that can be achieved, and then decide on a trade-off.

Let me tell you a little method: you can first check the conditions for recruiting psychological counselors on the Internet to see what abilities you need to have, and whether you can achieve them. It would be better if it was constant.

Hope that helps.

If you meet the conditions, you can apply for the examination on your own, and the conditions for the psychological counselor examination are to have a college degree or above in the major or related major, or to obtain a college degree or above in a non-major or related major, and to reach the specified standard number of hours of formal training as a psychological counselor, and to obtain a training completion certificate.

With a healthy and sound personality, you should be a relatively mentally healthy person with a level of mental health that is at least higher than that of your client. A qualified counselor should be a pleasant, life-loving, and adaptable person, who can properly handle his or her own psychological conflicts and eliminate daily distractions, so as to ensure that the work of helping clients can be carried out smoothly;

You should be a helpful person. Only helpful people can give warmth and support to the client in the counseling relationship, create a safe and free atmosphere, accept all kinds of positive and negative emotions of the client, and finally enter their inner world;

You should be an empathetic and good listener. Be able to listen patiently to the client's narrative, make the client feel that you are concerned about their difficulties and understand the situation, and can understand their conflicts and ideas from the client's point of view, so that they are willing to trust you, reveal their inner privacy and secrets, and form a good alliance.

In addition to this, the most important thing is to have knowledge of psychology.

Psychology is a science, psychology summarizes the laws of human development, summarizes the characteristics of human behavior, and it studies people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

Psychological counselors are not aunts of neighborhood committees, psychological counseling is not only a good desire to help, enthusiasm and general common sense to comfort, persuade those in distress or encourage psychological patients to fight against the disease, psychological counseling and psychological ** is scientific work, to use scientific knowledge to help visitors, so that they understand the real reasons that bother them, correct or give up maladaptive behavior, so that psychological maturity, better adapt to reality.

If you want to become a counselor, you must first obtain a certificate as a counselor, so that you can be qualified to become a counselor. Then you can go to some psychological clinics to apply for jobs, and you can become a psychological counselor.

Hello subject, I am a companion Qianqian

Cross out. I'm very happy now

Rogers, a psychologist, said: "It is better to cultivate a psychologist than to discover a psychologist."

It seems that becoming a psychological counselor requires a certain amount of talent in addition to your own efforts

We are all very sensitive people, 15% to 20% of people in this world are as highly sensitive as us, in fact, this is also our special advantage, because sensitive, we can quickly capture the emotional state of the other party, so as to achieve good empathy.

Some of our own experiences, our own suffering, can actually make us feel the pain of our clients better, and deepen our understanding of them.

However, we also need to pay attention to protect ourselves with high sensitivity, while it is easy to feel the pain of others, we are also very tolerant of judgment and easy to fall into our own emotions, so protect ourselves and don't let ourselves be carried away by the emotions of the client, which is also a great challenge for us!

Winnicott also said: In addition to crossing oneself, one must also cross others.

Everyone who bravely embarks on the road of "learning psychology to heal" is a particularly brave person
