And listening to this ability is precisely the important ability of psychological counselors.
Here I tell you a little story. One of my classmates is a psychological counselor. She is blind.
She studied psychology for many years and initially worked in a 24-hour crisis intervention hotline. At present, I am consulting in an institution.
Speaking of her study experience, I really admire her. Every time she goes to Beijing to study, she goes by train alone. After studying for two years, all the other students asked for leave. She has never asked for leave, and she studies hard. Take notes carefully in class and take the initiative to answer the teacher's questions and ask questions.
Occasionally, we live in the same room. At first, I was a little uncomfortable and didn't know how to take care of her. So I asked her how I could do what she needed. She said she didn't need special care. She will tell me when she needs it, and I will relax at once.
I was deeply moved by her self-care ability. If she is not a classmate, I can't believe that her living ability is not worse than that of ordinary people.
She used the knowledge of psychology to help many visitors who encountered difficulties and setbacks, and brought them confidence and hope in life.
A person's physical defects are nothing. Although we can't change them, a person's inner strength will make his life different.
Learning psychology helps you feel the world with your heart and brings you another kind of light.
Bless you!
After reading your story, I feel that your confusion is not only "blind people can learn psychology", but more importantly, you think that "forced things can't find the meaning of life"
First of all, you have systematically studied massage, which can meet the minimum requirements for making a living. Like doesn't mean love, and the same forced thing doesn't mean that it can't be done or doesn't mean that it doesn't make sense.
Secondly, there are many ways to learn psychology. Of course, if you strengthen your psychology for yourself, there is nothing wrong with it. If you regard it as your skill to make a living, you must first think clearly. This skill emphasizes practice far more than theory.
Thirdly, massage is to relax the body and psychology is to relax the mind. Just like human legs. If you can walk on two legs, is it mandatory or meaningful?
Finally, when God closes the door, he leaves a window. We envy many people who are physically disabled and determined. You have the ability to help people relax, and communicate with customers more when you massage. I believe you will find the meaning of life that can comfort others both physically and mentally.
Hello, I'm Atling, the creator of psychological field.
The employment rate of disabled people is low, especially the blind. The occupations that blind people can choose are limited to the massage industry. If you don't like working in this industry, I understand your dilemma.
In recent years, I often go to the blind massage and chat with the blind master. Every time I face the ground, I can't see them, but I can talk about something very deep. The blind teacher seems to be savvy and very good at understanding the mysteries of life. Therefore, although the eyes are invisible, warmth and healing can also be conveyed through sound. And the massage industry is very close to psychological counseling. Every time you chat with a guest, listen patiently, which is equivalent to a case. Therefore, my suggestion is that you can practice in your current position and learn psychological knowledge systematically. When you are ready, you can officially open a studio.
The following passage was shared by a blind psychological counselor. "Because I concentrate on the sound, I can detect subtle voice tremors. Analyzing these details can judge the psychological changes of visitors. "
Not many people can learn, and some even reject it, because some involve privacy and don't want to be known. Even though psychological counselors will keep secrets for patients, they feel that they will have self-esteem and psychological barriers to overcome. If you are a blind psychological counselor, even if you know the patient's name, there are many people with the same name, and you can't see the patient's appearance and state, and the patient has no burden to communicate with him!
Although physically and mentally disabled, many disabled people will have some psychological obstacles to the injustice of fate. If they communicate with people with the same fate, they will be more understood and they will think that we can also engage in all walks of life and have more hope for life!
Blind psychology mainly studies the characteristics and laws of blind people's cognition and activities. You can totally study psychology. The employment direction is quite special, and many colleges and universities actually lack psychology in a large number of special directions. But it requires excellent professional and technical level. You can consider schools or welfare institutions first. hope this helps
Can learn, the employment rate is not very good or even poor, not recommended.
I don't know why some people recommend psychology. Psychology is good as a hobby, but it is really not recommended as a profession and work. Every year, so many psychology graduates can't find jobs and do other jobs. How hard does it take for a blind person to be a psychological counselor? How many people can support themselves just by being a psychological counselor?
I think so, too. I don't know much about this.
Of course you can learn!
Of course you can study, but employment depends on your skills.
