Re: Anyone a school psychologist?

Wow. I have my master's in forensic psych and have been contemplating for at least a year now whether to go back for school psych. The only thing that is really holding me back is how difficult it is to get a job. My friend has a psy.d in school psych (for about 2 years now) and was never able to get a school psych position. I don't really have much helpful info b/c I'm still deciding! But good luck!

What type of job do you have now?

I have my MSEd in school psych, and am working toward my PsyD. I am going to be applying for jobs as a school psychologist for the fall. I hope I find something!

I'm a student at Pace University. If you have any questions about the program, feel free to FM me.

Re: Anyone a school psychologist?

I have my PhD in clinical and school psychology. However, I avoid the schools because it doesn't interest me and instead do clinical work. Many of my friends are school psychologists at great districts (Rockville Centre, Mt. Sinai, JFK/Bellmore, Syosset, etc.). If you do it, you should definitely go for your doctorate and not just your masters.
