Hey Lucas, you might find it interesting to listen to the Dr. John Delony Show podcast or the Being Well podcast with Forrest Hanson and see over time what ideas they spark for you.

Hi Lucas,

It's good to hear from you! A little bit about me. I used to take some Psychology classes at a University in LA. A psychologist needs a variety of skills.
Communication Skills: They need to be able to communicate effectively with their clients, colleagues, and the public.
Listening Skills: They will need to listen to their clients and comprehend their needs.
Empathy: They will need to show love, compassion, and empathy to their clients and comprehend their experiences.
Problem-solving skills: They will need to benefit their clients to solve their problems.
Critical thinking skills: They will need to think critically about their works and the research they will conduct.
I hope this helps!
