Go to nursing school 4-5 years and then get a job in a mental health area and they will train you more specificaly. Salery $18-$30 depending on what part of the country you are in. western states tend to make more.
What degree will you have when you graduate a mental health counseling program?
Great question. I have an MA in Clinical Psychology (Counseling Specialization). The trick is that after you finish your MA, you become licensed as a professional counselor. After a certain amount of supervised hours, you can become a clinical counselor. I use these terms vaguely because depending on what state you live in, they can vary wildly. In Illinois, I was a Licensed Professional Counselor and now I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor which means I can work unsupervised. Once you are licensed, the sky is the limit. You can fit into a variety of roles. Most common is community mental health or community addiction which is counseling but focused on addiction. Community mental health can admittedly be stressful, they are very rewarding. Despite a poor and viral misunderstanding, you can be a psychotherapist and you can work in, and own a private practice once you are clinically licensed. Other interesting jobs include Emergency Room clinician where you determine if someone requires hospitalization. With an MA you can teach both online and in a brick and mortar school. admittedly, these sometimes sway towards PhD's and EdD's but they are out there. Psychometry is also available. This is a position where you perform testing to be evaluated by a psychiatrist or psychologist. Career counseling is also a potential position. So really there are so many ways you can go. This is not an exhaustive list by any means. Good luck!

What classes are required for a counselor certification?
It depends on what kind of counselor you want to be. For most any counseling program, you will need an undergraduate background in psychology or another social science, so I recommend majoring in this subject. At the bare minimum, most counseling jobs require a Master's degree, either in counseling or in social work with an emphasis on counseling. Depending on what you want to specialize in (mental health, addiction, school counseling, career, and so on) there will be different paths you follow. Your best bet is to speak to someone in the career and academic advising office at your school to get you on the right track.
What jobs other than social work can you do with an MA in social work?
Its called an MSW (masters of social work) and the holder of an MSW could work anywhere from a military base to be the director of a program, to have their own private counseling practice. Its a very powerful degree.
