Question by Jaffa: Which type of “counseling” does not require a degree?
Counselor (for adults)
Therapist
Psychologist
Psychiatrist
etc.

I read a long time ago that one of those (or one in the same field but not listed) does not require a degree for someone to do professionally. Essentially it is a professional therapist who talks with people about their problems, and is not required to have a degree in order to do it. However, I forgot the formal title of it.

Best answer:

Answer by Kay
They all require degrees. I don’t know anyone who would go to a type of counselor who didn’t have proper certification.
