I've tried psychologist for several years during my life, and oddly, the more of them I've seen, the worse it turns out generally speaking. The last allowed a female client to roll a magazine up and begin shouting in my ear during an all female group therapy session. I still believe it was some sort of stupid social experiment by that psych who later now claims to be a forensic expert. I am unwilling to try anymore.
Are sociology research students or fellows willing to talk to individual people?
I'm quite familiar with social workers, but what/who exactly are research sociologist and where might they be found in middle Tennessee?
Thank you Sunrise for replying; Tom S. in Tn.
