Background y name is Sally Song and I am currently a high school student at an international school in Seoul. It is my goal to one day obtain a position in the psychology field, and become a counselor to listen and respond to different problems that people experience. I will achieve my goal by following my career plan.
College I will be attending a high profile university in Seoul, Korea and majoring in psychology while trying to minor in literature to become a better speaker or writer. The school will be large-size that has an emphasis on psychology, and on literature. First Jobs I would like an internship at a hospital of some kind, whether it is a large scaled hospital or a hospital thats just for psychology. Id want to get assisting experience so I know what its like to be a counselor or a therapist. It would be a really rewarding experience to see what its like to be a counselor or a therapist. Development in positions I would like to get an experience of being an assistant of a therapist or a counselor, in order to really observe how an experienced therapist responds to a patient. It would be a great experience to study how counselors/therapists work. I think that working with a professional would really teach me a lot of things, and help me grow into being a professional as well. I would like an internship at a hospital of some kind, whether it is a large scaled hospital or a hospital thats just for psychology. Capstone of Career Now that I am an adult with a job, Id love to be the main therapist, owning my own hospital and working with different kinds of people. I will be respectful of the diverse perspectives that everyone has, and work my best to be successful in life. In the end, I hope to become pretty well known (in my region at least). I want to own my own hospital, serving diverse groups of people and learning from them. Then, when I have my own family to care for, I think I would consider working as a counselor at a school, helping teenagers, and not dealing with serious issues that most adults have. I feel like I would have a lot to teach teenagers about growing up, because I believe Ive been through a lot as a teenager myself.
