Intro to Military Psychology: Becoming an Active Duty Psychologist with CAPT John Ralph (Ret.), USN
You might be curious about military psychology as a career. You might also be wondering, how does one become a military psychologist? Many students are unsure where to start! If this resonates with you, this is just the episode you need to hear! In this episode, we collaborate with retired Navy psychologist and the National Director of Navy Psychology Training Programs CAPT (Ret.) Dr. John Ralph. We discuss the different training pathways to becoming a military psychologist in all service branches. Dr. Ralph also shares his journey into military psychology as well as a glimpse of his extensive experience as a military psychologist, such as being the first ship psychologist aboard USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) to leading the midshipmen development center at US Naval Academy to becoming the training director of Navy psychology.
