PhDiversity Podcast
has two broad goals: demystifying the path to a Psychology PhD Program and sharing counseling psychology content knowledge with a focus on diversity.
Demystifying The Path
Trying to get into graduate school can be daunting. And navigating graduate school can be just as intimidating. We hope to lessen that anxiety by helping you learn what to expect. From the undergraduate years, to applications, to making your way through a PhD program we will share all we’ve learned through trial and error and watching others.
Demystifying Psychology
Psychology is really interesting! Your host is a Counseling Psychology PhD student who’s excited to share some of the knowledge she’s learned in her classes. However, she also has a lot of critiques about the lack of diversity within psychological research. So we will both distill some histories and summaries about psychology topics for you while also pointing out some blind spots.
