What Jobs Can You Get With a Counselling Degree?

Posted on January 4, 2023January 4, 2023 by The Times USA News

There are many ways a counsellor can support someone experiencing emotional challenges, mental health issues, and difficult life changes. People of all ages can benefit from a counsellor. A degree in counselling can open up many different opportunities and job prospects. 

A counsellor should be compassionate, informed, and open-minded. They can give objective advice, guide someone through a difficult time, or even just lend an ear and make someone feel their voice is being heard. If this sounds like you, a degree in counselling may benefit you. Becoming a good counsellor is attainable through study and relevant experience. 

There are many different kinds of counsellors who support people from all walks of life, all experiencing different things. Here are a few of the jobs someone can excel at with a counselling degree. 

Mental Health Counsellor

Mental Health awareness and acceptance are becoming more common, and more people are seeking professional help. Mental Health counsellors provide support to those experiencing mental illness. Someone in this role might offer advice and therapeutic support to those facing depression, anxiety, and more. They can’t necessarily cure these things completely, but they can improve the lives of people dealing with emotional, physical, psychological, behavioural and other issues. They can offer coping strategies, encouragement, and non-judgmental space to talk about what is troubling them. 

Marriage Counsellor

Marriage is complex, and some couples want an unbiased third party to advise them. A marriage counsellor can encourage couples to communicate openly about problems in their relationship and how they can be resolved. Marriage counselling has a pretty high success rate, so this job may be perfect for someone who values the fulfilment and commitment that comes with marriage and wants to see marriages thrive. 

School Counsellor

This role would be an excellent fit for someone who cares about young people. School counsellors listen to concerns raised by students, and support their academic, emotional, physical and personal development and well-being. They might work with parents and school staff to ensure that the child is surrounded by support on all sides. 

Financial Counsellor

Financial counselling isn’t just about solving money problems. It’s about seeing the individual and their unique circumstances, figuring out why they are experiencing financial difficulties, and offering support. Someone in this role should have a range of knowledge about finance, debt, bankruptcy, credit and other relevant topics- but they should also have perspective and compassion for the human beings they counsel. 

Family Support Worker

Family support workers work both directly and indirectly with children and families. They might work with organisations designed to help families and children, they might directly assist and support families and children, and they might work with foster children or children at risk of being removed from their parents. This job can be stressful and emotional, requiring patience and resilience, but the right person in this role can make a world of difference for children and families.

Substance Abuse Counsellor

This job might be right for you if you want to help those battling addiction. Misuse and abuse of drugs and alcohol affect many people, and they need support to manage and maintain their intake. Reliance on substances such as drugs and alcohol is a complex issue, and a knowledgeable, trustworthy counsellor could help someone battling an addiction turn their life around. 

Career Counsellor

Choosing a career path is a hefty decision. Guiding someone to an occupation they love and watching them reach their full potential is highly rewarding for everyone involved. Careers counsellors are knowledgeable about the workforce and help people make informed decisions and choose the career path that is best suited to them. 

Grief Counsellor

Grief counsellors support people suffering from a devastating loss. This job might involve helping someone process a loss and cope in a healthy manner, with reasonable expectations. This would require knowledge of the stages of grief and how the human brain reacts to the death of a loved one, as well as compassion and understanding.

There are many people seeking help, and there is a form of counselling for almost anyone. Choosing to study counselling can lead you in many directions. With the knowledge gained from a counselling degree, you could also work in a related field and add valuable knowledge wherever you go, or go on to further study. The opportunities are endless!
