ENGLISH II – 2nd activity
In the job market
Psychologist
Faced with a problem, we sometimes need someone to help us see things clearly so hat we can make the best decision. We can go to our parents, relatives, or friends. Or we can search for the professional advice of a psychologist.
	A clinical psychologist is a counseling professional who studies the human mind and behavior, people’s actions, feelings, and thoughts. Therefore, psychologists can help you analyze your own problems from a different perspective and identify options to solve them. They do not solve your problems for you – they help you identify your difficulties and learn how to deal with them. The final decision is up to the client.
	A psychologist can specialize in many different areas besides clinical Psychology, such as sports, education, health, children, and trauma victims.
	Depending on the area they specialize in, psychologists can work in hospitals, clinics, schools, government agencies, sports clubs, or in their own office for private practice.
	In order to become a psychologist in Brazil, one has to take a five-year course at a college and register at the Regional Council of Psychology after graduating.
