What does a psychologist do? Do they get paid a lot of money?
A psychologist is an expert in psychology, the systematic investigation of the mind, including behavior, cognition, and affect. The two major categories of psychologists are those who conduct scientific research and those who work in an applied psychology area. Applied psychologists are further subdivided into a number of mental health and other professions, the most well-recognized being clinical and counseling psychologists. Doctoral level trained psychologists are also the experts in the provision/administration and interpretation of psychological tests and assessment. And Yes… they usually make ALOT of money. trust me I used to go to a shrink and I paid them $250 for each one hour session.
