How to become a Psychologist 101

Welcome to the very first episode of the Mental Status podcast!

This is a podcast created for psychology students—by psychology students. We’re your hosts Yash and Josh, and we aim to demystify the unknowns of studying psychology and share our insights along the way.

In this inaugural episode, we navigate the journey to becoming a Psychologist. We explore the different pathways, whether you're a school-leaver, currently studying, or want to make a career change. We unpack everything you need to know, including the degrees, the requirements, and the extra steps you may wish to take.

If it sounds overwhelming right now, don't stress - by the end of this episode, the road ahead will become much clearer.
