S What accreditation to turn the family/marriage counselor?
I wish to turn the family/marriage counselor. I’m operative upon the bachelor of psychology now. we do not have the time to turn the protected psychologist, we only wish to work with spiteful young kids as well as families.
I’ve listened the little people contend it takes hours (approx. 2000) of clinical work prior to we can turn licensed.
How is it afterwards which pastors have preaching licenses as well as have been means to warn people.
I’m wondering if it would be simpler to get the divinity grade as well as warn by the church.
Any suggestions?

Here are some links to get basic info on family/marriage counseling. I could be mistaken, but this field seems to require an MA or PhD

I am not familiar with the details of counseling through religious organizations and personnel. If you have a career counseling center on campus, that might be a good place to start.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
