You are wanting your t's opinion, almost as if you need it to finalize your decision? Whereas i got the impression SP had already made the decision, just didnt want to tell her t about it - more of a nice to have. So to me, the emphasis on the other situation was in talking about it; the emphasis in this situation is not in talking about it with t but in choosing a career path, and so i can see where she says thats more guidance counselor territory. Not whether you would be good at it, but what area of psych what you be best at?
I'm a Senior undergrad, age 21. Hmm, you're on track there. I am fairly sure this is what I want, but I'm not super sure like ShrinkPatient. Part of it is that I feel too young? I was looking for her approval or disapproval, but not to actually help me decide. I think I've decided, but it's one of those cases where I say to myself "I think I can" and not "I am confident that I am meant for this." Thanks for your comment hankster!
