Yeah, I am, come February. I might become less visible in the forum then as I need to deal with changes. Good luck with your exams!

thank you, {{{Kodenate}}} busy these days?

{{{Kodenate}}} Happy Holidays!

Why, thank you... yeah, I think I reached my plateau with my current work. My boss doesn't want me to leave but I think I need new challenges to motivate me. And also, I think it's time for me to get my master's. With that, I need to work lesser hours than what I am working right now. How's school? are you enjoying yerself,eh?

I am good. Had a wonderful vacation! I feel rejuvenated somehow. I will be moving to a different place come January hopefully. I am crossing my fingers while making things fall into their place.

yes, still a geisha though..haha.. colorful this time. how'd you been?

Thanks for accepting my request.

oh.. {{{Kodenate}}} I know that is unsolicited still... Chase all those ghosts away.. Feel free to talk about it, I am just here. You can PM me if you like.

Am into I/O. I like Jung's theory except that it had probed into spirituality much that I find it too creepy.. sssshhhh Jung's theory has been somehow influenced by eastern spirituality. I find his archetypes very handy.

Btw, I noticed you had become less visible in the forum?

Nah, I am not into psychotherapy or even counseling. I do counselling when it is needed at work. I believe Freud is a genius. I think that says it all

Hi, Kodenate..such a late reply is this! Hmm you were referring to eclectic approach.. It is not as easy as one might think. For it compasses several theories from Freudian to Neo-Freudian to Behaviorism etc. I am not saying eclectic therapists are not that all too effective and methodical..it's just that you need to know and understand all approaches. In essence, it's like being a jack of all trades, master of none.

Shh... I'm hiding. If I stay real still no one will notice me.

Oh yeah, what I actually mean was 'if in case you will be a psychotherapist one day'. Sorry for my lack of words. I am always like that.
I think the combination of both is Well, good luck on your studies.. You will learn a lot more about yourself as you go on..

What psychotherapeutic intervention would you be using in case? just curious..

That is a very true statement.

It's a good 'damn'.

Damn.

When I took up Psychology, I wanted to focus in Clinical Psychology. I was 12 when I read the novel "The Prince of Tides" and got me hooked with Psychology. And I wanted to learn to know more about myself because since I was small, people always regarded me as different.. almost alien. Eventually, I earned more units in Social Psychology and totally found clinical setting appalling when I visited a mental institution. I graduated at 20, got a job right after in an industrial firm. So to speak, I am more incline to Organizational Psychology now.. I find it satisfying as I get to witness "theories of personality" into action..haha Some colleagues offered me teaching jobs but I declined them all. I wanted to teach someone what I learn, really.. I just find it hard to articulate all the things I have in my head. Are you good in Math? I am not. I barely passed my Trigonometry, Chemistry and Physics subjects. And most of my friends in the profession too.

I think that's nice..and I share the same eagerness to learn about everything. What field in psychology you want to specialize in?

What makes Psychology interesting? I always think that we do things for a reason. I hope I am not prying much..
