As I'm considering a career in psychotherapy/counselling I found out about a Postgraduate Certificate in Psychotherapy and Counselling which I plan to do next year. However, I'm not sure whether to go down this route or to maybe do a Master's instead... I've received so much conflicting information, some people tell me that Masters is a waste of time unless I want to go into research whereas a PG Certificate is more hands-on, but then I don't know whether a Masters would look more desirable to employers...
Can anyone provide me with more information?
