Summary
I’ve always been a helping hand to my peers since school time. I’ve helped my friends get out of difficult times which motivated me more to get into the field of psychology. I’ve been passionate ever since. I started doing online courses and even offline internships to get an insight into what exactly a psychologist does. I’ve sat in sessions as an observer and helped the clinician almost as an assistant would. I am aiming to work for children whom I can help. I am working towards doing a pgdip course in child psychology. I would love to work for some time and put my skills and knowledge in real life.
