Question by bestgirl4u05: How long would i have to go to school to become a sex/relationship therapist? ?
How hard is it to start your practice? Im not rich and id have to get financial aid to go to school. Would i just be digging myself into a hole with bills? and not even be able to start my own practice by the time im done?

Answer by Pick A Winner
You would have to go 4 years undergrad and a minimum 4 years graduate. Then when that is all said and done you have to do internships to get experienced enough to get a license. I don’t want to discourage you but yeah, it costs a fortune. My mother is paying off student loans and she got he therapist degree 2 years ago. My sister is also is a therapist and she was in business for herself and after a few years she sold the agency and went to work as a college professor of psychology because running your own practice was too stressful for her to deal with. She had constant scrutiny for the board of behavioral health, plus clients causing all sorts of problems. When she tried to go to work for someone else she couldn’t get a job because there were more therapists in this city then there were jobs for all of them. That is just the market where we live. It could be different where you are.

Question by blamp: How to be a relationship/marriage therapist?
I am considering a career as a relationship/marriage expert, and I want to figure out the best course of action to do so. I assume that a Bachelor’s degree in psychology would be the first step, but don’t know where to go from there. I know that in order to be a practicing psychologist, usually at least a Masters is required, but would like some help figuring all of this out. If someone could give me the course of action that they think is best for me, I would appreciate it.

Thanks ahead of time!

I don’t think you would want to major in psychology to be that kind of therapist but rather you should major in sociology.

“The study of human social behavior, especially the study of the origins, organization, institutions, and development of human society.”

The reason i suggest this because of sociology’s study of “human social behavior” which is exactly what relationships/marriages are.

52 Lessons on Communicating Love: Tips, Anecdotes, and Advice for Connecting with the One You Love from America’s Leading Relationship Therapist

In this delightfully informative and entertaining book, Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer gives new meaning to the words “We need to talk.” In her unmistakable voice, she urges couples to speak, listen, share, sing, get dressed up, write things down, or do whatever else it takes to express the feelings in your hearts. Best known for her plain talk about human sexuality, she encourages setting time aside each week to read and discuss one of the lessons she’s written. Do this together weekly for a full year, and it could make a world of difference in your relationship.

Here is a sampling of the valuable tips and advice you’ll read about:

DO tell your partner how you feel and what your needs are, but choose your words carefully and express them at the right time. Be sure what you are saying is what you want him or her to hear.

DON’T wait until you are blind-sided by sudden crises, tragedy, or anger to express your feelings.

DO unplug the TV, put away the to-do lists, turn off the computer screen playing in your mind, and find some quiet time along to be with each other.

DON’T focus on old grudges or make promises you can’t keep. Apologize if you need to or accept your partner’s apology; then move on.

DO close the blinds, light some candles, listen to your favorite song, and take time to reconnect if you’ve been apart.

DON’T expect to find an instant soul mate. New love needs time to grow, but when both people work at it, the rewards can be incredible.

DO deviate from routine. Be spontaneous. Plan something unexpected. Boredom is one of the leading killers of intimacy.

DON’T miss any opportunity to touch. No matter how fleeting the moment may be, make every hug count.

ABOVE ALL… DO keep the conversation flowing… It will strengthen the bonds between you and keep you connected with the one you love.
