V. My Future Job

Hello girls, boys and others

At the moment I am studying psychology, and I would like to work with children and teenagers. I would like to work in SENAME, and I know that is a really hard work to do, because the kids there suffer a lot. I am really interested in children's rights. They need help, and I think that with what I learn in my classes I can help them, because I think that mental health is really important.

I think it would be mostly an indoors job, a quiet and private place is better for a good therapy, but that does not mean that you can’t do the therapy outdoors, but it depends on the case. I would like an outdoors job too.

I would like to travel a lot, but not for my work. If I would have to travel for work, I would do it as a volunteer, maybe.

I do not think too much about the salary, and I really do not know how much a psychologist that works in SENAME earns.

I like Educational Psychology, Juridical Psychology, and Clinical Psychology (in this line, I am interested in systemic therapy). But, even when in my career I can study different lines of psychology, and I can specialize in some of them, iat the end I will have a “general psychologist” degree. Bessides that, I will know more about Juridic Psychology. This career was my first option.
