I recently completed a Masters in Mental Health Counseling, June 2016. I have been working as a Permanent Substitute Teacher, grades K-6, for the last 5 years. I really loved the position, while completing the Masters' program however, I am ready to begin something NEW!! My undergraduate degree is in Elementary Education. Can someone recommend??

I've been looking for a career in the Mental Health industry since April. I have the certificate that is required and have put in applications for every position that was posted. No phone calls returned when I have called to find out where I was in the hiring process. I'm unable to resubmit any applications for some places for at least 6 months and others for a year. In the meantime I feel like I went to 4 weeks of training for nothing. Now I don't know what to do but I do know that retail and food is not my thing. Especially sells.

Do not get attached to the children because you will begin to make it personal instead of professional. Trust me it's a big difference!!

All the job openings for mental health counseling require 3 or more years of related experience an entry level job with a starting salary of 30k average per year. I have a bachelor’s degree and internship experience but obviously that’s not enough to get an interview. So, what else can I do to land a mental health service job without going into more school debt?

Are you required to report it? I'm currently on medication and if it gets too bad I will take FMLA for it but I don't want employers to single me out because of that. And we all know how some employers are.....
