Hello,

Counseling psychology is a great career, especially for those passionate about mental health and helping others. Awareness of mental health issues has increased, and counseling psychologists are in demand in schools, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and private practices.

With an MA in Psychology , you could become a clinical psychologist, therapist, school counselor, or even corporate wellness consultant. Entry-level salaries would typically range between 4-6 lakhs per year, but with experience and specialization, you could earn much more, especially if you start your own private practice.

PhDs, specialization in child psychology, organizational psychology, and other specialized fields could add further value to career prospects and earning potential. In a nutshell, counseling psychology provides personal fulfillment and also great financial growth, and hence, it is the perfect choice for anyone who is keen on the mental health aspect.
