Hello everyone!
I am graduating with my B.S in psychology in May and I have decided to take a year off before grad school. I had a plan throughout my undergrad career that I wanted to go to grad school for my ph.d in clinical psychology. However, at the moment, I am confused and unsure on what degree to pursue. I am unsure of the ph.d route because of the amount of time, money, and I have no interest in teaching at all. However, I do have interest and experience in research. I started looking to MSW programs and becoming a LCSW, but my downfall is how much they make. Money is not main priority, but it is very important and I would like to be able to support myself. My passion is in children and mental health (diagnosing, treatment, etc) I have looked into developmental psych programs, school psych programs, social work programs, and psy.d programs. If anyone that is a child psychotherapist or a child psychologist that can help me, that'd be great
