What kind of career involves travelling but also involves pursuing a career in psychology?
I am in love with psychology, I love learning all these different forms of psychology and studying it... but I also want to travel so I am just trying to find a few options where I could do both. #psychology #travel #career-options

Also try googling "psychology conferences." It's very normal within the professions (law, medicine, psychology, university professors in any subject...) to travel to professional conferences a few times a year. Sometimes they're in very cool places (Rome, etc.). In other words you could potentially just become a normal psychologist and then travel a few times a year to such conferences. AFAIK, at least under the current US tax code, such trips are generally tax deductible as business expenses.

There are programs that are similar or even within organizations like Doctors Without Boarders where you travel to place where people are in need and give them medical assistance which can and often does include therapy!
