Mental Health & Disability
Points to Consider
The field involves a variety of roles from entry-level assistant positions to those requiring a PhD.
Opportunities exist for direct service to clients, as well as those involving little or no client contact.
The field is becoming increasingly specialized and licenses or certifications may be needed for some positions.
Opportunities exist with populations at all age ranges from birth to death.
Excellent job prospects are expected due to the aging population in the U.S. and other factors.
This type of work can be emotionally draining.
