How to choose the direction of graduate study if you want to work in the psychological counseling center of colleges and universities?

It is not necessary to choose which major is more suitable for future work in university psychological centers. Whether it is clinical counseling or educational psychology, most colleges and universities have no specific professional restrictions, and the general direction is related to psychology. Because the work of psychological centers in colleges and universities is not limited to psychological consultation, this part of the work only accounts for a small part, and it also needs to undertake education and teaching, publicity activities, crisis intervention and a lot of administrative work, especially some psychological centers with only 1 or 2 people, which need compound all-round talents. Moreover, most psychological centers are under the student affairs office, and other departments need to participate in assistance when they have important work.

It takes a short time to devote oneself to psychological counseling, and it needs to be flexible enough to quickly change roles to adapt to the changes of multiple identities in one day. So the question now is not what major you want to choose for the psychological center, but which direction you prefer to study. The learning process in university is a platform for people to discover more potential. The learning process of graduate students cultivates a person's ability of independent thinking and professional research. I believe that no matter which major you choose, you will have the opportunity to pay more attention to developing your own ability and cultivate any position. You are also welcome to join the mental health education team in colleges and universities in the future!

Psychology is a huge system, branched from the philosophical system and developed into this state. Every year, new theories and new occupations appear, and each of us has limited experience. Therefore, in the direction of employment choice, the subject may need to choose one he likes, instead of considering learning more.

On the other hand, I learned a lot at school, and I may continue to strengthen my study after leaving school. Learning is a process of continuous growth and progress. People always have things to repair and deal with, so learning is also a non-stop thing. If you choose a subject, you can find a corresponding job and a corresponding major to study in the future.
