A survey of psychological counselors' career

Life experience is a must. A little knowledge of philosophy and religion, and a little medical foundation would be perfect. In addition to psychological knowledge, you should also understand relevant counseling skills, such as relaxation, emotional management, Satya, NLP and so on. These are all necessary for a consultant.

If you are a person, you should be able to accept all people and things unconditionally and have a positive attitude towards life, because most of the time, counselors are exposed to some negative things, and without a positive attitude towards life, it is easy to make yourself haggard, and you should be able to sit still and listen well.

The career prospects are still good. The gap of professional psychological counselors in China is 470,000, which is a sunrise industry. Nowadays, there are too many industries that need psychological counseling, such as teachers, police, HR, community and so on.

The advantage of this profession is to be yourself and help others through growth.

The disadvantage of the major is that the market is not very mature yet, and the fees are not clearly marked.
