HiThe very common myth about psychologist are that they are "Face readers". They can see face and tell what is going on with them. Its not true. Nor psychologist read minds. Many people believe that psychology is just common sense. Many other people feel that psychologist treat only mentally challenged people.Some do feel that the counselors, psychologist and psychtrist are same.Counselors -{as seen in many schools, for example) is not necessarily a psychologist. Psychologist work is to treat clients with counseling and therapies. Psychiatrists are basically medical doctors who are trained and certified to prescribe drugs to deal with mental health problems-and they don't usually perform counseling.Many people get the impression that anyone who works in psychology spends most of their time talking to crazy people-and that most of this talking involves some form of therapy, usually centered on dreams. But this a fundamental misconception: for starters, there are a huge number of fields in psychology that don't involve talking to crazy people at all-and most psychologists work in these fields.Psychology is a science.Psychology can be broadly defined as the study of the human mind and behavior. It is a systematic approach to the understanding of people, their thoughts, emotions and behavior. The application of this understanding helps to solve human problems.Psychologists explore concepts such as perception, cognition, attention, emotion, phenomenology, motivation, brain functioning, personality, behavior, and interpersonal relationships. Psychologists analyze different intentions, reactions and feelings of the mankind. Their cure and counseling is aimed at altering the behavioral patterns of the patients to initiate re-adjustment of their thought process which in turn, improves the overall quality of their lives.Hope this answers your questionAll the bestCareer counselor
