Psychiatry Personal Statement

It is no accident that I have chosen Roosevelt University's, MA Clinical Psychology (Counseling Practice) program. I am particularly interested in Clinical Psychology because it is open to all kinds of people. A person’s mind and its foundation are solely based on solid principals that are both instilled and what is gathered through our experiences. Psychology attempts to explain the mental processes and how it affects a person’s present and future depositions. It is a gateway to multicultural sophistication and competence as well as considering every aspect of a person without any preconception. The MA Clinical Psychology degree will not only provide stability and purpose but increase opportunities to work with diverse groups of people. It is not a question of cultural consideration, which comes from a position of power and privilege. It is the matter of appreciating everyone equally. This

The doctor of behavioral health program will most definitely fit into both my personal and professional experiences. I am a great team player and I am always willing to learn and work as a team in a group setting. I have over 9 years of counseling experience. I am the counselor and founder of Family First Counseling Group, LLC. Our mission is to reconnect broken relationships and rebuild lives. We believe in encouraging individuals to face their responsibilities and forward to accomplish goals in the lives and relationships. As a counselor who have counseled a variety of clients with mental health issues such as substance abuse, depression, anxiety issues.

Psychiatrist is a type of physician who work for people who have mental diseases such as, depression, trauma, amnesia, etc. Psychiatrist might be the one of the hardest type of physician because mental health problem could be a congenital or an acquire problem. Some of the patient tries to suicide and they needs to protect them from being dangerous. Psychiatrist helps society to have more people with better and healthy mental. Most of the psychopathic patient have hard time of communicating with other people and psychiatrist helps them to be in the society by helping them to think and act like normal people. If I become a psychiatrist, I wish to go to Seoul Asan Hospital in Korea, Incheon International St. Mary's Hospital in Korea, or UCLA

I've been for the majority of my adult life in the counseling area, beginning in high school, where I finished an internship in a community mental health center. Working with substance abuse and the mental health field since 1982, I've lived since 2003 in the Asheville region. I graduated from Tennessee State University in 1996 with and M.S. In Counselling. Over time, I've worked in diverse settings, including several years as a school-based counsel at Enka Middle and High Schools, along with Hominy Elementary, and over a decade in home-based counseling program focusing on helping families avoid removing kids because of their delinquency, or misuse or neglect in the parent. I also have worked at large community mental health facilities, including

Somewhere along the line, it became clear that my journey is not so much about knowing as about always learning. It can be professionally intimidating if you have a limited number of treatment approaches that you’ve mastered, to heavily focus on the patient as your teacher. It can be even more frightening to take the extended time to allow the patient to open up and share their thoughts and feelings over a long period of time. Significant value is put on conducting brief therapy work in a short period of time in the context of our managed care system. Many clinicians don’t have the luxury of taking extended periods of time with patients. I’m fortunate that my programs grant funding allows me the opportunity to build my therapeutic relationship with my patients. Rapport building with my patient has become a more important priority than ever has been before in my

General Psychology applies to so many individual areas of everyday life; from family relationships to english papers, a basic understanding of how humans think and interact is vital. I volunteer at a retirement home and dementia facility twice a week for ten hours. Beginning in August, I viewed the job as a sort of check on my list of high school requirements; however, it provided me with a unique and invaluable opportunity. This semester, I simultaneously learned about neurocognitive based psychiatrists Emil Kraeplien and Dr Alois Alzheimer and their achievements in the field of dementia, while interacting with people experiencing the phenomenons they diagnosed. At the facility, the first four floors are filled with retired seniors who need assistance preforming everyday tasks or have memory issues.

Medicine is a career filled with many choices but it’s the fate of a person which shapes one’s goal in life by the hurdles it throws one’s way. Like most of my colleagues, I entered Medical School uncertain of specialty choice. Internal medicine is the field that I practiced early on in my career, but the field of Psychiatry always fascinated me and a traumatic personal experience forced me to realize this fact, that this interest in Psychiatry is something which I already had in my instinct.

There are approximately 14.8 million people that are affected by depression. A psychiatrist is a hardworking,time fulfilled job that involves you to be good with people and good at communication verbally or digitally.

Medicine is about the captivating combination of altruism, intellectual challenges and the fact that I can be the one to make a genuine difference in people’s lives. Once someone is my patient, his or her quality of life is something I will be able to change for the better.

I respectfully agree with your statement regarding the obligation that a psychiatrist is still considered a health care official, and as such, should treat their patient who is suffering from a mental illness. It is their duty, regardless if the patient is an inmate or not. However, when a physician is tasked with the forceful application of medication, one must consider that their job is not to decide the inmate’s  capacity of understanding and determining if they can be executed on the spot.  Aiding in the facilitation of the inmate’s execution is unethical and will transgress the oath they had pledged in the beginning of their career: “do no harm”. What I must disagree with your statement, is that a psychiatrist or any medical personnel

My desires to excel in the field of psychiatry and to refine my clinical skills lead me to the impressive health care system of the United States. The up-to-date evidence based medical practice, there further developed and refined my diagnostic skills, patient approach and thought process regarding treatment. The academic facilities in US institutions are amongst the best in the world and so I decided to apply here. I am looking for a training program in Psychiatry which can enhance my qualities as a decisive thinker and teach me to use deductive reasoning close of evidence-based medicine. I will always welcome any opportunity that involves the advancement of the medical field.

Psychiatric patients have got an increased morbidity and mortality to other physical health problem. The most problem they are facing is the life style factors such as use of substances and the decreased physical activity. These patients are mainly restricted to their home. If mental ill patients do not create any problems to the family members and their neighbouring families, the family members are happy and not so much bother about the patients. And if they are not creating any problems to others, family members are not bothered or motivated to treat the mentally ill patients. Hence the lack of motivation from the other family members, results in mentally ill patients showing the symptoms of high risk of being affected with other health problem. There is availability of treatment to the mentally ill patient. There was only a little availability of the treatment facilities for the psychiatric patients. So the lack of services available and the most vulnerable nature made them more adherent to the problems. There is direct relationship between the physical and mental health of the patients. In this study the researcher dealing with only the minor issues such as substance abuse, obesity, hypertension, diabetes along with the mental illness, and it would be a way to understand the problems of these

I was recently meeting with some fourth-year residents as part of their course on psychiatry.

My goal in the future is to achieve a doctor of medicine degree in psychology and become a psychiatrist, focusing in clinical psychology. It is a very challenging path, as it is going to take a lot of my time, resources, money, and effort in order to achieve my dream. In general, obtain a doctor of medicine degree will require 8 years to graduate, and 4 more years to train. In total, I’m going to spend another 12 years after high school for my career. However, I feel that the path I choose is also highly rewarded. I can have a stable income, and more than that, a chance to change a person’s life.

I had the opportunity to take General Psychology in high school, and I have been fascinated with the complexities of the human mind ever since. Specifically, I enjoyed the developmental unit, which stressed the importance of a stable environment for a child’s wellbeing. Growing up, I was fortunate to have two loving parents whose support gave me the confidence to try new things and strive for academic success. The contrast of my own upbringing to the unstable environments many children experience fuels me to help children have the same nurturing environment I had. With a bachelor of science in psychology, I believe that I will be given the tools to care for the mental health of children in a holistic way. In Psych 1200, I learned that one’s
