I SEE A CAREER CHANGE FROM INVESTMENT BANKING IN PSYCHOLOGY. ALL IDEAS, OPINIONS, SUGGESTIONS?

No sense staying in a career that you do not like. If I were you, I would consider an MSW rather than an MA in psych. With DSM, and open the possibility of the insurance settlement. It’s fast, easy and interesting to obtain degrees. If your goal is private practice, you really need if you have a PhD in Psych route went (unless you saw in Council or in the school psych is). Their experience in finance and an MBA linked to an MSW you would an excellent candidate for a position in the nonprofit management. You will probably find a job very easily in building the necessary clinical hours received an invoice for insurance practice privée.J a master’s degree in psychology (clinical) and I am currently a Ph.D. in educational psychology. Before returning to school for my doctorate, I worked as a director of case management services for adults with mental illness, and then as a family therapist working with teenagers and young offenders and as one of the overseers of this program. All in all, I have seven years experience in Psych m, with the exception of four years of experience, so I got my pt BS.Bien that the work is very important, it is quite repetitive. Most jobs were flexible, I had to some extent, but you must be prepared to non-traditional hours (ie work available weekends and nights), but you can often a model for your time and do not come later or on another day . I did not like being on call 24 hours a day, which probably be the case if you had a private practice. After work with clients for over 7 years, I decided that I hated my job. So I’m back to school for the Ol ‘PhD. . . I will try universitaire.Psych in the middle. In general, high turnover related employment. You can not MAK awful lot of money, but you can certainly live with. I earned about 95K between a workstation and a desktop pt when I return to school on the left. Initially, you may pay a wage cut (my first job out of college 26 500), but I’m not sure, because an MBA and could be considered eligible for leadership positions, but may be a year or two internships of interest. My best advice to you. . . Before the use of your chips and switch careers to volunteer a few days a month to see if you like in the field of service of man. There are a ton of settings that you work / volunteer and you discover that you really hate that shit people (like me can hear). Good luck. If you have further questions, please contact us.

I do not recommend a complete change. I think you can do the work with humans without going through 4-5 years of education and other expenditure. With your study and experience, you can easily spend a college professor, or open your own business as a consultant for companies and consultants to the public. Self-employment or training would be more rewarding than working for someone else. Teaching full-time college = 20 hours per week. If you want a private practice as a psychologist, you need to get your Ph.D. Psychology (four years), most at least 2000-3000 hours of free training (depending on country of residence) have to do plus a thesis. It is to deal with paperwork and insurance, there is currently a considerable number of people are unemployed and without assurance.Il advertising costs and you do not know exactly when the client load as soon as you open the door. You could use a industrial / organizational psychologist (Master level), but it would take you directly to a working position for someone else, I do not think you would make them happy. You should consider a return on the investment of time and money. I know that money does not make happy, but their absence can cause problems, too. I know a lot of unhappy people with double degrees, which are in each area. My best advice to you is to try to get a job as a teacher in part-time in a business school or a local community college.
