[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is so inspiring to hear! I have wanted to be therapist, but I wonder if I have enough years of practice to justify the cost/time. (I am 50.). That said, there is such a need and I am drawn to helping children and families.[/quote] That’s wonderful but a Master’s degree is a very different kettle of fish![/quote] I don’t want to hijack the PhD thread with Masters talk but if you get the dress which takes 2-3 years you will be 53-54. If you practice until you’re 75 you have 20 years of working. Or even 65 that would be 10–12. Think of how long you’ve had other jobs. That’s a long time to do somehh to isn’t that you live and is amazingly interesting. I say go for it![/quote] I would definitely go with Master’s yes, PhD no. Agree with PPs who say getting in to the latter is nearly impossible these days anyway.[/quote]
