Hello and thank you forvisiting.
This is my first blog and Ihave to say that I feel a bit uncomfortable sharing my thoughts and ideas witheverybody out there. I am not the most talented person when it comes towriting. So in advance, my apologies for that. Hopefully, writing my thoughts downover time will help me with my writing skills.
Now, let’s get to what prompted me to sit down in the first place to write.Well, it all has to do with me being accepted into a MSW program at an awesomeUniversity. After spending many months obsessively performing research on what programsof study, MFT vs. MSW vs. Psy.D., to pursue and what schools to apply to, Imade up my mind and applied to one specific program. I have been accepted and aftermeeting my fellow students and faculty I have to say that I am very humbled andoverwhelmed with the great fortune, excitement, and work. My decision to pursuea new field of study and consequent profession has been long in the making. Yousee, I actually have an engineering background and I spend my whole lifethinking logical, analytical, and very unemotional. Unfortunately, that is veryconflicting with me as a person. So, I was very overdue for some change in mylife. There was of course a trigger factor but I will not go into that rightnow.

It is my goal to share withyou my experiences and thought as I go through the MSW program. I will try todescribe, to the best of my abilities, how I hopefully transform from adominant left-brained engineering type to a right-brained social worker andtree hugger who already is hiding somewhere inside of me. Please visit often asI try to describe my journey with all their challenges and insights.
Mr. H
So glad you are here in this program!
ReplyDeleteI can very much relate to you and your "obsessive" research regarding Psy D., MFT, etc. I also went through that same search. I also arrived at the same place -- being humbled and excited to be working with such an amazing group of people. We are truly blessed and I have no doubts about my decision to pursue a MSW instead of all the other countless options. I am curious to know this trigger!! I will definitely be following your blog!
