I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but an AA in psychology isn't going to help much in the current market -- there are folks out there with PhD's earning 30k or less. Of course, there are also PhD's earning a lot more than that, but the ones I know are corporate psychologists and not working in a therapeutic capacity at all. Have you given any thought about what you want to do with your psych degree? To address your more immediate concerns, what work experience do you have so far? That might be more germane to your immediate job search. What kind of work are you looking to do? How far are you willing to commute? Do you have a car or are you relying on public transportation? The answers to those questions will help in offering you some useful suggestions.
It's still a tough economy out there -- the previous administration left one heckuva mess for President Obama to clean up, and he's been doing a great job but we're not out of the woods yet. Still, it's better than it was in 2009. If you can answer the questions I've posed here, perhaps I can offer some useful ideas for your job search. I also wish you good luck.

With an AA in Psychology you can look for positions using people skills. You didn't mention if you're looking for a full-time position or a part-time, in any case, I did see some openings in the neighborhood.

MIDWAY has 4-6 different positions available. Candidates must be bilingual. MIDWAY is located at 4400 South Archer Avenue (half a street west of Kedzie - on White Castle Side of the street).

When I was 14 or 15 years old I stole a case of soda out of a garage in my neighborhood. The owner used to leave his garage door open from time to time and he must have been in the soft drink business because he always had dozens and dozens of cases of this off brand soda pop stacked up in his garage, One day, while with the guys, walking through the alley, and being thirsty, I walked into the garage and took a wooden case of 12 quarts of this soda. The owner walked in the garage as I was leaving. He started chasing me. I dropped the case and ran like Rafer Johnson. When I turned out of the alley at 64th & Kostner, I slipped on some gravel and took a hard spill, but got up to run again, but it was too late. The guy got me and pummled me pretty bad. Broken nose, black eyes. the whole nine yards. The moral of this story: I never stole another thing. I hope a Cook County judge reads this.
