Is it possible to work multiple jobs within the Psychology/Social Work field?
Within these two fields, it's come many things I want to accomplish. I would love to counsel people and be a Life Coach at the same time. Is it possible to achieve? #psychology #social-work #life-coach

I currently work in the criminal justice field, and am working on my Master's in Social Work. Yes, you can work multiple jobs. I want to counsel people as well. In my current position, I don't have a caseload but I used to. If you want to work in community corrections, you will have the ability to help offenders. If you want to counsel people as a social worker however, you will need a bachelor's. Most counseling positions require that level of education. Another option you can do is become a behavior analyst, which is also counseling people. Case management, consultant, social worker, etc. are job titles for this kind of work.

You will probably NEED to work more than one job but they are all interesting in different ways.
