What should be the focus for a psychology student who hopes to impact the mental healthcare of disabled and homebound persons?
I am perusing a psychology degree to become a mental health professional. I hope to offer virtual counseling and other help online for disabled persons like myself or people who may be home-bound. I am interested to know if the mental health profession is working toward helping these type of people and if this is a good direction for me to focus.
