Hey Emily,

One of my best friends, Roxanna, is a therapist, and I will answer on her behalf.

1. She currently works as MFT (Marriage and Family Therapist). Since she recently graduated, she is still working under a more experienced therapist's license.

2. It took her six-seven years. She spent four years doing her undergraduate degree (this is actually where we met!) and then the rest of the time getting her Master's + mandatory clinical work.

3. She mostly worked retail before landing her current job and dabbled in other therapy roles for her clinical hours
