I would look into what the best masters program is. I know a few people who got a degree in clinical counseling and struggled to find jobs.

A lot of people at my job have MFT but those degrees aren't national so a lot of the time to get it transferred to another state you have to take more courses or do extra internships.

Some of the MFT's at my job have encouraged me to go the MSW route. It's recognized nationally and there are a lot better job prospects.

I'd honestly say just research. I haven't decided on a program yet but I'm leaning more toward MSW since I might be moving out of state.
