Is There a Quicker Way to Becoming a Therapist?
Question by Noa Bach: Is there a quicker way to becoming a therapist?
I am a gentle, sensitive, loving, and empathetic person. I have thought about careers where I can help people and many people think I should go into therapy, because I am so gentle I can calm patients and help them emotionally but that is so long! You need a bachelor’s and a master’s degree. It’s way too costly for me since I have already been to three schools. Is there anyway to become one fast? Or any careers related to it that doesn’t take long to pursue?

I guess you just start out by helping out/talking people around you (maybe get a little payment?) , and then if it’s helped them out they’ll probably spread word about you. You can do this with friends, neighbours, families of friends, old teachers etc.
Then when you have enough experience, you can give them your business-card or something…in time you might have enough recources to stand up as a private therapist :3
…I hope it helped..

There’s a wide variety of therapy jobs (music therapy, massage, etc.). How good these jobs are and how much demand, I can’t say. There’s a lot of demand for addiction counselor, some jobs available for only bachelor’s
