Probably research psychology rather than clinical.

In high school the placement tests they had me take recommended economist, which is hilarious, because I hate maths except as a tool, and I think most economists are a bunch of people purporting to be oracles but know nothing. The ones who reliably predict recessions are never listened to by anyone except after, then ignored forever after except for a one-off Cassandra article.

The ones who aren't Capitalist are doubly ignored, even by other leftists, because nobody wants to hear about how to make the numbers work, they just care that Capitalism Bad™.

"Resource allocation? Actually implementing a fair society? Making a society that doesn't fold in on itself because nobody wants to clean the sewer? That shit is BORING. Let's burn a cop car."
