I have decided to discuss child psychology. This work force has been always my great interest. The reason why I choose to discuss child psychology is because I amreally considering taking it in university. Showing children the right footsteps in life, brings me great happiness. The reason why I have choose this type of psychology is because it deals with children, while a psychologist deals with mostly with adults. There are very many different types of psychology, another being developmental psychologist, which deals with only analyzing the brain. While a psychiatrist, is a type of doctor that is able to prescribe medicine.

Having the responsibility of a psychologist are very important for the children in the future. Preventing a child from being shy is impossible, but knowing that it can be treated and imported shows the important fundamentals of being a psychologist.
Psychologists and other professionals may function or work as therapists. So clinical and counseling psychologists are trained in psychology and also undertake therapy from a psychologist perspective.
Psychological health can be as fuzzy a concept as abnormality. The following shows how people overcome their problems and how they are towards life:
? Positive attitude toward the self
? Continual growth and development as a person.
? Accurate perception of the world.
? Competent interaction with the environment.
? Positive relationships with others.
Parents, teachers and even child psychologist focus on the motor development, physical health and learning of their child. This redirects their stress their social and emotional growth. We realize that a child has a problem when its too late. For example realizing your child is too shy. Many parents aren?t concerned when their child is being shy, thinking that they are well behaved because they aren?t interacting with children. It may be easier to handle them, but it could raise to the extremes.
The other career choice would be education. That is also dealing with children, as you can tell children are a big part of my life. Teaching children would allow me to interact with them and learn there types of lifestyles. The grades that I would like to teach would be from grades 4 to 8. I would have to go into education for about four to five years.

By recognizing the possible developmental outcomes of trauma, psychologists and adults can have a better plan to understand and approach the traumatized children. A child who is experiencing a traumatic reaction will show extreme behaviors either reacting or under reacting to the crisis situation. The signs and symptoms of stress in children can be grouped under the following classifications: cognitive, emotional, psychical and behavioral.

Being a child psychologist, there can be health issues, one being stress. Stress is probably the most health issue dealing with psychology. By hearing and discussing all of there problems and concerns can put the psychologist in depression also. Knowing that you can?t help this particular child can bring a lot of stress upon you. Hearing a variety of concerns of depressions can make you depressed by feeling sorry for them. Stress is by far the most health issue in this field.
