In which career in the psychology/therapy fields would ASL and foreign languages be most valued?
I speak 2 languages (including English) fluently and 3 more at varying degrees of functional fluency. One language I know that I think is particularly unique is American Sign Language, which I learned in school and at an academic summer camp. Now that I'm thinking about potential career choices in the fields of psychology and therapy, I wonder where my language skills would be most valued. I mean this in the sense of the value of being able to help a community with less resources available to them, and also in terms of the financial value this career path would have to me. Especially, I wonder if I could make a big difference by working with people in the Deaf community--are there already a lot of people doing that? I really want to work in therapy much more than in psychology, as far as that makes any difference in answering this question. Thanks in advance! #psychology #language #social-psychology #child-psychology #school-psychology #languages #moral-psychology #american-sign-language

How difficult is it to get in military or veteran psychology and what steps do I need to take?
I currently have 8 friends in the military, ranging from the army, marines, and navy. They say sometimes it can get pretty tough and I try to help them by staying positive. Most of them are only doing one term and I want to try to relate to them when they get back into civilian life. I have thought about joining the military but decided it was better for me to go to college.
