[quote=Anonymous]Have not heard OP say what the reason for PsyD is. Do you want a degree for the sake of it or is there a particular job you have I mind? For example, psychological testing, forensic evaluation, private practice therapist, mental health administrator, etc. These are the jobs I see psychologists in most commonly. I am LICSW working as a community mental health administrator, have been in the field for 10+ years. Also consider that you will go back to school for five years and graduates a pretty lousy inexperienced therapist who is low on the totem pole in your agency. A lot of second career therapists really struggle with this. It takes a few years post degree to be competent, even if you are very bright. Especially professionals who are used to being in charge and in positions of authority. Arrogance and entitlement can interfere with your clinical practice. [/quote]
