A Hijabi's Path to Clinical Psychology: Seeking Guidance

Assalamu alaikum, dear brothers and sisters 🌙 Lately, I've been thinking a lot about my career goals, and I've set my heart on becoming a clinical psychologist. If you're not familiar, that's someone with advanced training who's licensed to evaluate, diagnose, and help people with serious emotional and mental challenges. They use therapy approaches backed by research and testing to support individuals. But here's where I hit a major snag. Working with male patients. Part of this role involves one-on-one sessions where I'd discuss very personal issues privately. There might be times when I can't request only female patients and would need to meet with men face-to-face. This is a calling I'm truly passionate about, especially since I hope to incorporate Islamic principles for those open to it. Is there any Islamic guidance, maybe from hadith, that could advise me in this situation? Jazakum Allahu khairan for any insights ❤️.
