Hello everyone, I am new to this forum
My name is Nikki, I am from Texas. I just graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice. I am now looking into pursuing my Masters degree however, I am a bit confused as to which graduate degree would suit me best. I am having trouble trying to decide what the difference is between a Masters in Clinical Psychology between a Masters in Social Work. While talking to the head professor of the psychology department here in my hometown he stated a Masters in Social work would be better because of the wide variety of jobs. But, he didn't go into much more detail.
I love helping people and I am very social, my friends tend to think I am already some kind of therapist because of the great advice I give them. I would really like to hear from others whom are working in the field what their opinions are or students currently working on the stated degrees. Which is more beneficial and Why?? Please any information you can give me would be greatly appreciated! THANK YOU!!!
