There are many different post-bachelor degrees in this field. It seems that if you get your master's, you can go into counseling. You will have more freedom than a bachelor's, but not as much freedom or monetary income as a doctorate. Options increase in other fields as well. Industrial/organizational psychology, health psychology and sport psychology to name a few. The degree also applies to other jobs that would be good for psych majors such as criminal justice or marketing, and increases chances of getting a job in a related field as opposed to a bachelor's. If you do want to go into counseling, there are many certificates one can get to go alongside a master's for specific areas of counseling, like specializing in patients with drug addiction issues, or working with children. Master's in the fields of social work and education are also work looking into if one wants to persue counseling as a career.
