I took the ACI intermediate psychological counselor exam, read all the materials, and read the book five times, just to get the certificate. This is my introduction.
After the exam, I was deeply attracted by psychology. I began to search the psychological counseling platform on the network platform. I want to continue studying, and I met a psychology APP, which is very good. There are articles and books about psychology on the platform, including psychological counseling courses.
If you want to become an expert in the field of psychology, you can recommend continuing to study undergraduate and graduate psychology. This is especially useful for getting started.
You can also be an assistant in the psychological counseling room, but an assistant should need a little contact and knowledge accumulation. So come on! I hope my answer can help you! [like]
Hello, 65438+In September 2007, the certificate of Grade III and II psychological counselor in Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security has been cancelled, and there is no special authoritative certificate at present. If you have a medical background, the current psychotherapist certificate still contains gold. At present, if you start from Xiaobai, you need to study by yourself first, such as reading some books, general psychology, social psychology, and some best-selling books in psychology, or taking some courses. There is a hypnosis course in Shanghai recently. Professor Fu Anqiu said that if you want to learn, you can work together and accumulate some knowledge. Then you can try to be an assistant, take the case slowly, and you can embark on this road.
How to study psychological self-study? Psychological research is a psychological counselor, but it used to be a nationally recognized profession. Later, the certification was cancelled by the state, and later it was certified by other institutions. Later, ACI international registered psychological consultant qualification certificate appeared. The simple understanding is that it used to be recognized by the government (it used to be divided into three certificates and two certificates, but now it is not clear how to classify it). Now it is recognized by the psychology of the Intermediate People's Court. If you want to research, you can go to your local area to check, or you can go to Baidu to find out first.
The next books you want to read also need textual research, namely general psychology, social psychology, psychological measurement of children's psychology (also called developmental psychology), abnormal psychology, which is the foundation, and then psychotherapy. After studying, you can choose a school of psychology to continue your study, which is the so-called supervision class. The so-called school is the method of psychotherapy. For example, psychoanalysis (I studied psychoanalysis), then cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy and so on. If there is no teacher to teach you, you may not understand some descriptions yourself.
Then there is personal advice. First, when you finish learning, don't think you are very good. You can read people's hearts. If others are a little sad, they can give counseling. Earn more than 10 thousand a month. Don't even think about it If you want to do psychological counseling, your first treatment object is yourself. Analyze it yourself. If you can't even do yourself well, let alone be kind to others, otherwise you won't even know how to start. Second, find out the two major directions that you can do psychological counseling, general psychological problems and serious psychological problems, and then subdivide what counseling you are most suitable for, such as emotion, children, marriage and so on. The first kind of depression and psychosis that can't be consulted belongs to psychiatrists. Strictly speaking, psychological counselors are not qualified to do it. It is impossible without four or five counseling experiences. These are all things in the future, I hope.
Different people have different expectations of us. It can be said that everyone needs mental health knowledge to serve themselves and integrate into life ... I am not a psychology major and like psychology very much, so I have accumulated learning and growth from every bit of life. From "psychological wisdom in life, basic psychology, social psychology, personality psychology, developmental psychology, 26 happiness classes, psychological measurement, psychology of children and adolescents, social psychological service, psychology of marriage and family, expressive art therapy, psychological history of China" and so on, I have applied what I have learned to my work and life, and great changes have taken place in myself and my family and even around me! Open your own psychological world with a positive psychological model and warm more people with your heart. Our life is a trip, a colorful artistic performance! Recently, great progress has been made in the counseling of artistic expression therapy, and psychological wisdom has gradually increased. Participants gradually discovered their own bright spots, and our own growth and accumulated professional abilities were brought into play in our own lives, resulting in more happiness. At the same time, I am also a beacon for others. Recently, I often say, "Insist on studying psychology, practice serving the society, let more people know about themselves and others, and let more people benefit from psychology."

They can also apply for the second level directly, but the relevant qualifications are high, and the relevant regulations can also be found online.
Self-taught exams require undergraduate degrees in education, medicine and psychology, and then you can apply for it yourself through the study of a three-level psychological counselor.
