Is it possible for psychologists to earn over 200K a year?

Question

just a thought...

please explain.

Answer 1

Sure.  But, it depends on the type of psychologist.  A clinician that is say, the director of a mental health facility can have a sizable salary.  A clinician in a lucrative private practice may also make a lot of money.  Other psychologists, non-clinical or counseling who go into the private sector as consultants in varied fields again, may earn a lot.  Those in academia will be comfortable, but not as likely to make over $200K.  Keep in mind that there are many different types of psychologists.

Answer 2

Yes, it is, but it takes many years of schooling.

Answer 3

Yes, but it's very doubtful. Psychologists are USUALLY the bottom of the barrel when it comes to the medical field. It doesn't mean they always are, but usually are.

You can make $200,000 a year doing anything if you are determined enough.
