Answer by Dr. K
This is a very common question on here and very common question I get a lot.

Ok, first, let’s get the psychiatrist out of the equation. They are a medical doctor and have an M.D. (medical doctorate) degree. They go to medical school and take courses in mental health and psychology but their primary concern is prescribing medication. Think of your general doctor you go to when you are not feeling well. Psychiatrists are similar to them, but they have a lot of training in psychology and dealing with mental disorders. They generally see patients for as long as your medical doctor would see their patients; about 5-10 minutes, find out how their meds are doing and then go to the next patient. They do not do group therapy, they don’t “counsel” patients/clients on their condition and help them find ways to help themselves other than meds. They do make a hell of a lot more money because they do dabble with medications and that is a very dangerous thing to give to people. They would not be hired over a psychologist, as these are 2 totally different professionals.

Question by Know One: Chose masters degree in psychology or counseling?
I’ll graduate with my BA in psychology next spring. I knew when I started that I would need more than a BA in psych to get a job in the field. Now I’m torn between master’s programs. Should I choose a MS in psychology or in counseling? I would prefer to find work as some sort of mental health counselor, but I’m not sure which degree opens more doors.

At my nearest state university, I can get licensed through the state by taking the counseling program because it includes enough hours of on-the-job practice with professionals to qualify for licensure. However, I don’t know if a counseling degree is as widely accepted by employers as a psych degree, and I don’t know if one offers a more varied job market than the other.

Here are a few. Practice them: = use physical energy: run, play a sport, take brisk walks… So channel your built-up emotions. = write down your angry thoughts, then throw the list into the garbage. = slow down your reaction time when angry; count to 10 before responding and avoid saying the first thing that comes to your mind. = if the frustrating person is pushing your anger buttons: use a neutral tone of voice and say excuse me? or “I hear what you’re saying” or “clearly it looks like this issue is annoying you” = if the other person is aggressive and loud: in contrast lower your voice. Your contrasting calmness fills the air. =summarize what you heard before answering. Do not assume. = use assertive skills such as: I statements: I feel hurt when you .. Instead of you hurt me by. = if the other person is incapable of carrying a civil conversation, then shift the conversation to a more neutral topic. = remember you do not have to win every argument; agree to disagree. = practice praising in public keeping your criticism to private. = never use sarcasm; it increases the tension in the air. Instead, turn the humor on you. See yourself as the ruling emperor who has absolute powers to which, the rest of us, your subjects have to kowtow!! Make fun of yourself so bring your …
