Phil's Guide to Psy.D.
United States
Приєднався 23 гру 2009
I'm a clinical psychology doctoral candidate finishing up my Psy.D degree. I was originally born in Accra, Ghana, and moved to the States with my family when I was young. I studied Neuroscience in my undergrad life at Indiana University. I then studied at Boston University, obtaining my master's in Health Sciences. My passions have always been reflected in his life as I served as a dental assistant, clinical informatics specialist, pharmaceutical assistant, and currently as a certified personal trainer/medical exercise specialist. My ultimate goal is to help people holistically through physical, emotional, and psychological evidence-based interventions.

3 Ways to Reduce the Financial Burden of Grad School
Why is it called "mental health" when it's really an emotional issue?
I’m a fulltime husband/dad employee. Just finished my masters in general psychology, is it possible to get into a psyd program with that much going on?
Does psychologust wer scrubs
thank you
3rd is the coolest in my opinion except I want it to be *neuropsychiatry* instead of "ology"
How did you decide what to focus on?
Is it true Psychology also help in Solving Crimes? What Psychology should I aim for to be in the field of Criminal and law studies?
Heyy, I just found your page plan on watching more videos later, I am an LMFT and wishing I had extra training in Neuro, wondering if you have a video on books you recommend for those of us who are trying to be more mindful about when to refer out and how to support clients better. I have not seen as many Phd programs on neuropsychology and worry I am late to being able to being able to get into these programs but would love to start expanding!
Very informative ❤... Hoping to be a psychologist.😊
Hi Phil, thank you for consistently providing us guide to guide to psyD and enlighten us on the what we can you with our psychology degree. I sent you a DM on Instagram as regards a concern I have but I haven’t heard back for you. Will doing masters project as opposed to doing a masters thesis affect my chances of getting accepted to a psyD program?
Thanks so much for the information. It's so inspiring to see another young black man in the field of psychology, especially at the level you're at I really appreciate the videos. I really have to make time to check out all of your content. I'm currently in the middle of receiving my bachelor's in psychology, but I know my long-term goal is to get my master's in clinical mental health psychology, so your videos are really helpful. Once again thanks so much
Thank you for the support very much appreciate it! Best of luck to you on your journey, I hope the videos continue to be helpful!
Hi this video was really helpful. But I do have a question. What would a BS look like for psych? If I would want to be a licensed therapist but also still want to do neuroscience as well? Can you still be a therapist if you do a BS in psych rather than BA? I am interested in psychology and neuroscience. (Leaning towards majoring in psych and minoring in neuro or even double majoring) but my end goal is just blurry. I would love to be a mental health therapist but I’m also interested in research. For example researching brains and giving out psychological assessments which you stated in the video. ( dont think I wanna go on the pre med track tho)
Most programs will either accept a BS in psych or BA. At least in the U.S typically as long as you fufill pre-req classes you can major in anything you like but you should check with the school that you apply to. BS typically has more science classes, sometimes students will do a neuroscience minor as well for more science classes, its up to you. Many mental health programs have a research focus that you could look into. Psychometricians are the ones that typically do assessments under the guidance and supervision of a psychologist. Theses jobs are available for students typically after college and some research experience.
Love the school psychologist reference!
Thank you for making this video! I’m currently a special education teacher and i’ve been considering going a school psychologist route once I complete my current program. This was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Please tell us some schools that pay for your psy d with a good gpa
Certainly! I plan to do a video like that in the future!
Thank you very much, you explain all this with simplicity and clearness. Listening to you is a pleasant experience!
You're very welcome!
In which country they draw this much can you please let me know.... I wanted to know about canada... Thanks for making this video!!
Yeah countries will certainly have different salaries and each country should hopefully have salaries recorded on websites! Hope that helps!

Thanks for the vid. I got low GPA 3.0 (suddenly dropped to lowest during covid and improved after). Got 2 yr research xp and 2 publications. will GRE scores help compensate? what else can i do to have a chance?
Yeah GRE scores might help, as well as clinical experience, and a good personal statement or letters of recommendation. If you need any further help you can check out my website at philsarpong.com best of luck!
@@philsguidetopsyd thanks a lot.
I’m in highschool and don’t really know what pre med major to pick. It’s hard because this sounds very interesting but like I don’t have much experience in this subject. Is that bad? Do you have any advice because I don’t really know what major to even consider.
Good questions! Usually first semester is a great time to try some different classes to see if you like them. Plenty of time to explore and see what is best for you!
Great information! I would like to know more about choosing an internship site: hospital, FQHC, university, VA, private practice counseling center, etc. Also, what specialties require fewer assessments. I really don't like them 😅
Love that! Keep the questions coming, I'll be sure to do more internship videos this year so stay tuned!
What an awesome and thorough video. Really helpful! Thanks!!!
Glad it was helpful!
congrats!
Thanks!
Thank you for this video! I am in my PhD program for Organizational psychology. I usually tell people " I am not kind of psychology". I barely met other who are in my field, so it is nice that you cover this!
You are so welcome!
Great information!!!!!!! TY sir.
Glad it was helpful!
💓💓💓
Thank you for empowering your audiences with the tools to shape a healthy lifestyle
Thank you so much!
As a postgrad without a mentor who is also making a pivot, thank you for sharing your story. I feel less alone! Congratulations!💓🌸
Thank you!
Very informative
Thanks!
Hello i study psychology at Turkey.I want neuropsychology or experimental psychology for studying chimneeze perception etc. Which one you recommend ?
That's amazing, it sounds like you'd like to study animals? Experimental psych might be a good option, as I think most neuropsych programs will focus on human behavior but I could be wrong depending on certain countries. I'm only more familiar with the u.s. Hope that helps!
can you please tell me how to become a neuropsychologist in australia, it would really help!
I'm not exactly sure about the differences there vs. U.S. I'll have to see if I can get a guest to come talk more about that, stay tuned!
@@philsguidetopsyd that would help me a lot, thank you so much phil
If I want to go into neuropsychology do I HAVE to go into a PhD clinical psychology program (i wasn’t a fan of clinical psych in my undergrad I was more fascinated by neuroscience and neuroanatomy). Or are there specific PhD programs out there for neuropsych? Google doesn’t really give me the answers I need
to be a neuropsychologist in the u.s., and independent a PhD/PsyD is required in clinical psychology. There are some specific neuropsychology phd programs, but their essentially a clinical psychology program with a neuropsych focused. It's kind of like med school, in order to specialize you go through med school and then in your residency you can specialize in what you want. Psychology is kind of the same thing in that you get the clinical psychology degree (maybe some schools have a neuropsych focus or track) then in your internship you can specialize in neuropsychology. Hope that makes sense, best of luck in your journey!
This was EXTREMELY helpful! I graduated with a BS in psych with a concentration on neuroscience and am currently a psychometrist at a neuropsych clinic. I’m hoping to go to graduate school but I’m stuck between behavioral/cognitive neuroscience (I LOVE research) and neuropsychology (also super cool!)
Love that, congrats and best of luck on your journey!
Hello! I recently got really interested in neuropsychology! I overall want to do psychology and help people by giving therapy but I'm also so interested in the brain side of things. You mentines that there is a whole lot of testing but are neuropsychologists still able to do the therapy side of things. Thank you in advance 😁
Yes they are! Some jobs thought might require neuropsychologists to do only do testing so it's important to to find job placements that allow neuropsychologists to do both.
@@philsguidetopsyd Okay, that's great! thank you so much!
I will graduate with an undergraduate degree in psychology next spring and am looking to extend my education. I will be 34 in January. What military can I enjoy and complete my master's or PhD?
Great questions, typically you can contact recruiters and they can better answer your questions to what might be the right fit. Best of luck!
Did you go from your undergrad into the PsyD program or did you get your masters then your PsyD
I got my masters before the PsyD
BTW, you delivered the message with great clarity, thanks for that!!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, how is the math in clinical psychology? Not crazy about math, I don't want that to hender me. Are their a lot of math involved?
Good question! It really depends on the program, PhD programs tend to have more stats classes, but it also just depends on the program. I hated math but with a bit of help from cohort members, and a good Teaching Assistant I got by. If you've taken stats courses in college it's similar to that
literally watching this cause a girl I like wants to be a Neuropsychologist so I wanted to learn more about it
Smart girl
excuse am some speak in English am more than Amaric

Thank you so much!! I appreciate the support, hope your journey has been going well!
