Hello all.
I am a first year doctoral student in a clinical psychology program. My area is neuropsychology. It has taken me all of one and a half semesters to grow to dislike research. It is not so much that I "dislike" it as it is that I feel I am bad at it and as such will not be happy pursuing a career doing research. I'm okay with doing it while in school, but am concerned about my career.
What are my options as a neuropsychologist outside of academia? I think I WOULD like to teach, but not do research. I also really like doing assessments.
I am not familiar with career path options or how the job market is for these other options.
Thanks so much for your help, all. I really appreciate it.
