The Michigan School of Psychology — Local services in Farmington Hills

I must say that although this school does have it's enormous upsides with being a therapist/psychologist; it lacks in communication directly to the students. During the application process I was rarely contacted by an advisor/counselor to set up a potential interview and move on with the admission process. The first interview that was scheduled was ultimately cancelled on their end for unknown reasons, then the second interview was given on one date, and moved to a later one. After months of back-and-forth, I finally had my interview in April (months before school starts). After a pointless 6 hour long interview I was told I'd know if I was being admitted within the next 3.5 weeks.

Not only will you learn about therapy and working with clients, but you'll also learn a lot about yourself. There are constant seminars and learning opportunities provided outside of classes (which some even offer continuing education credits) all for free. These range from play therapy, to presentations on multicultural psychology and much more!

It is such a good feeling to go to a school that is completely focused on your area of interest and passion. The focus of the school is, first and foremost, the students, and providing an education that will make you a high quality therapist.

I can honestly say I am very happy with my experience at MSP and I plan to go back for the PsyD in the near future. If your desire is to be a therapist, look no further as MSP is the school you'll...
