Are the attributes of creativity, flexibility and communication important in an effective psychologist?
Yes to all 3! I am not a psychologist but i wanted to be one at one time in my life. In my opinion you deal with a wide variety of personality types so you have to be creative in your ways to relate to people whom you don’t normally have anything in common with, cuz lets be honest as much as one may like to think they can relate to all there is always gonna be someone that you just can’t get through to using the normal methods because they are guarded too much and disinterested in sharing problems with a stranger. Second, flexibility, depends on what you mean… you may have to be flexible in the times and places in which you have sessions with your clients. Thirdly, obviously communication is key, if you can’t listen and respond effectively than you have no chance of helping anyone i n your field. So i think they all apply, hope i helped, good luck!
