HOW CAN YOUR MAJOR MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE

What do most people think about going to the psychologist? Have you ever heard phrases like "the one who goes to the psychologist is because he is crazy"? Unfortunately in society there is still the prejudice of being associated with madness only. If we think about it well as social science it works directly with people, this specialty is so important for the world because its objective is to see human behavior and discomfort.

While much of your interest is to see those who suffer some conditions, there is also therapy that does not involve being crazy or having a serious problem, in fact there are many reasons why to attend one. Examples include work problems, grieving, family problems, lack of trust or self-knowledge, among others. So how can my major make the world a better place? Helping to improve quality of life, affective relationships, manage conflicts and adapt to different situations, make decisions and many more.

Personally, I am still finding out if in the future I will play an important role in this aspect. It's my first year, but one thing I'm sure of is that my motivation is increasing. It would be great to be able to participate in what psychology offers.
