Adhiragni’s Answer

Most common are educational, social, health, counselling and clinical psychology and you can become anything from psychiatrist, counsellor, practitioner, therapist to social worker.
For books start I'd say start with - Inner Gold by Robert Johnson and The Emotional Brain by Joseph LeDoux

Timothy’s Answer

I need to infer what you mean by streams, Which, I think you mean fields. There's a range of fields from child psychology to clinical psychology. Let me know if I'm on the right track - that you mean fields (disciplines), then I can provide more. As far as books, I'd guess from your question that your English would not put you up to a high level. I suggest an easier reading that can introduce you to psychology and at the same time enrich your command of English.

Katherine’s Answer

Some of the books I like best about psychological topics, or the topics that people often go to psychologists for, include books by Les and Leslie Parrott, Gary Chapman, Ross Campbell, John Delony, Henry Cloud, John Townsend, and John and Julie Gottman. You might like looking up those authors' books or anything by them on YouTube and see what you can learn. It will give you food for thought and also help you start forming your own opinions, and make decisions about what kind of psychology you might want to study further.

Trisha’s Answer

There's a lot of different lines for Psychology, there's child psychology, community, etc. I think one of the main things you can read on is a book on psychological theories, this is usually the foundation for all psychologists is to know the basic foundational theories. Hope this helps! :)
