POST 3 >> MY DREAM JOB

Since I was little I have wanted to be a psychologist, this is because when at school they isolated me and bullied me, the psychologist was the only person who did not treat me like a monster and who gave me support, from that moment I felt that I would like to be able to do that for others. I imagine myself in a nice office with a fairly comfortable armchair and one or another sofa, with some plants in the corners and some toys, I imagine myself organizing my appointments to attend to my patients, I see myself leaving the room and telling my first patient of the day forwards, sitting down so that we can see each other directly and he begins to tell me about his problems and I with a notebook writing down things that are important for the analysis, seeing how I can help him. To be a psychologist I feel that a lot of patience, understanding and empathy is required, as well as a great will to be able to listen to so many other people's problems, many of which must be very, very disturbing, as well as being capable enough to be able to say that this situation is beyond me and being able to take a break and seek support from another psychologist. Personally, I feel that to be a psychologist, although earning money is important, more should be done to be able to help others rather than to obtain a lot of money, for example, I sincerely would like to charge 20,000 Chilean pesos per session but providing different payment methods and the opportunity that they pay me by subscription or by installments or even if it is an important case to be able to tell the person not to worry about the money for the moment because the most important thing is their mental health and it is for things like that that I am now studying psychology.
