Dudedad, An MPH is NOT useful for someone who is interested in doing clinical/therapy work. (I have both a PhD in Psychology and a masters in epidemiology, so I know quite a bit about an MPH). Depending on the subspecialization (epidemiology, environmental science, health administration, etc.), it allows one to work in a variety of public health settings. It is NOT mental health oriented. The combination of an MPH and MSW is a nice one for someone interested in mental health administration and/or policy, but this doesn't sound like it's what the OP was interested in.
