If you want to become a psychologist, then you would have to get a doctorate (PsyD or PhD). To become a therapist, you can get an MSW/LCSW (with a mental health track) or a Master’s in Counseling Psychology or Marriage Family Therapy (MFT). Getting a doctorate takes a long time, but a Master’s in mental health doesn’t pay very well.

You should check out Student Doctor Network and then weigh your options.
