Well there are actually lots of different counselors. You didn’t say which type you’re interested in becoming, but I’ll find some information to help you..

Therapist — “Therapist” is another name for “counselor.” Therapists are people who use counseling to treat mental, emotional and nervous illnesses. Counseling is also called “psychotherapy.” Therapists can be psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers or other professional counselors trained in mental health.

Question by The girl with no name.: Can you give me some information on universities?
When I’m older i’d like to be doing makeup backstage or designing costume for shows as I am very interested in theatre. I do acting in my spare time but I have realized that it isn’t very realistic and is hard to get paid work to support me and my family. If that doesn’t work id like to be a fashion designer or beautician or something along those lines.
Anyway, at the moment i am 14 and choosing my GCSE options.
Do i need to go to university to get a job along those lines? Are their any specific GCSE’s i should take to get into university?
If someone could talk me through all this i would appreciate it!
