Tiffany I'm a big fan of yours! I'm a school psych intern in Indiana. Can you please do a video about tips and advice for new school psychs to build relationships with parents and teachers, administrators, and students? Even as an intern, I feel like my workload is so high that I am not making those relationships.

Currently working on my personal/autobiographical statement for my application and one of the things they want us to discuss is the role of a school psych, so this was the perfect refresher lol! Lots of love to you and your family!❤️

Hello, I came across your channel and I have a few questions about the school psychology profession. What was your deciding factor in becoming a school psychologist? Do you enjoy being a school psychologist? Are you always leading IEP meetings? If you had to choose a different career field, would you? Do you have any regrets of being a school psychologist? Is it worth pursuing?

Current practicum student! When I’m asked what we do, answer is always- It depends!

I'm considering to pursue a School Psychology PhD program, and I found your video very informative and helpful. Thank you so much for sharing! I wonder whether a school psychologist need to do all the work you mentioned in your video or they could have a more specialized role and specific responsibilities? Usually, how many students would a school psychologist cover in average? I think it may depend on the local educational policies but I really appreciate if you could share some data about that. Again, thank you!!

This is so interesting! Typically, how long are testing sessions for the kids?
