Question by Risa: Masters in Social Work, MFT, Education, Counseling, or School Psychology?? HELP!?
I am not recieving much help here at my university, and I will be applying for graduate programs this upcoming year! I am a Junior, and a double major in Pyschology and Human Development and Family studies. I love children, and I am also very interested in mental health and emotional issue. I am not so sure I can handle the most extreme issues, of child abuse for example, and sorts like these, but I am interested in working with people and helping with problems. I just dont know how to narrow what I want down! Can anyone help me differentiate between all of these programs and how I can decide which would best suite me???! THANKS!

The best way is to just jump in and work in different areas in order to find out which you like and are best at! Even if you take a semester or a year off and work, say in a group home, or children’s treatment center, it would be the best “investment” of your time and education, to find out where you feel and do your best! OR, just get your certification and then do the rounds to find where you fit best. AND, you could get part time work in different treatment centers and go part time to school. That makes a great feedback system, and you can get a lot of good from that gained at work!
