When I was in college I worked as an exotic dancer, I am now about to start grad school in clinical psychology---Is this going to prevent me from being a psychologist? I know now that this was a mistake, but all I thought about was tuition money at the time.

ok, so you worked through college as an exotic dancer.. good for you! It appears you are not phased by the opinion of others. It appears that the only restriction you have on yourself has been put into place by yourself. I ask you why? If you are determined and enthusiastic about becoming a psychologist then leave your inhibitions behind you and move forward, after all isn't that what you are about to train to do? helping people move forward beyond their guilt feelings, coming to terms with their past and dealing effectively with them. physician? heal thyself! Good luck in your studies.
