Which option would be better for my degree?

I've heard a few people in my classes mention skipping their masters degree and going to the PhD program. I didn't know this was an option. I know all schools are different but I've been having a hard time contacting the school counselor so I was hoping to get some advice here. Is this an option or even a good option for psychology? Would that be a better option or is it better to do the masters degree first? I originally planned on doing my master's degree to work as a therapist for awhile to take a break from school before going back to get a my PhD to work as a psychologist if that matters for my question.

Skipping a master’s to pursue a PhD in psychology can be an option at some schools, but if you plan to work as a therapist first, completing the master’s may offer valuable experience. Consider what aligns best with your career goals and whether you prefer practical experience before focusing on research.
