Hi guys.. I am about to graduate in florida. I have 3.9 of GPA and my major is psychology.. I am only 20 years old and don't have any working experience.. I have done some service learning but nothing serious (no more than 25 hours) so I do not want to do my PsyD in psychology right now.. I want to get exposure in the field before making a long term commitment in a doctoral program.. I don't even know if I want to make that commitment.. So I am thinking in doing a master in mental health counsuling or the master in social work.. right now my school is offering the mental health counsuling program in the education department and the MSW so what do you think is better for me... and one last thing.. I heard that if I become a licenced mental health counselor with a master's degree and I want to practice counseling, I have to be supervised by a psychologist with a PsyD or PhD and I have to pay for that supervision... is that true????
