What it is.

What this class is:
  • A very broad, generalist view of the field of psychology.
  • Necessary for the attainment of almost any degree at almost any institution of higher learning in the United States.

What this class is not:
  • Your personal therapy
  • Training for you to "do" therapy, so don't even try.
  • A venue for you to analyze Crazy Aunt Hattie, your mother-in-law, spouse, kids, et cetera.
  • Your personal social outlet.
  • Your project to "convert"everyone over to your pet whatever (religion, multilevel marketing scheme, diet craze, ad nauseum). Life does not begin when everyone agrees with you.

What I am:
  • Your instructor.
  • Direct.
  • Assertive.
  • Intolerant of BS.

What I am not:
  • Your mother.
  • Your friend.
  • Your therapist.
  • Responsible for you.
  • Tolerant of BS.
