Speaking exam VirtualWritingTutor Laurie Fréchette

  Hi everyone, My name is Laurie and I am studying in College Lionel-Groulx in Social Sciences. This program interests me a lot because it is related to the human being in general. To me, all that is about human behavior, emotional and relational functioning is fascinating. That's the reason why I will continue my university studies in psychology, to eventually become a psychotherapist, which is a person who treats mental disorders by psychological rather than medical means. I have been following this college discipline for one year and a half now which is equivalent to 3 sessions. Since the beggining of this program, I learned a lot of things that will be useful in my futur career, including, for example, interactions between individuals, the basics of communication, the brain functions, the emotions, the different perspectives in psychology and several other elements. Obviously, the field of psychology is complex since it refers to precise and sometimes abstact terms. A huge challenge would be for me, as a psychotherapist, to find and to choose the appropriate word according to the context. This is indeed not easy because in therapy, each word as an important impact on the state of mind of the person.
