Hello Alicia,

In my experience living in Tx. I have found that having simply a degree in 
mental health counseling your options are limited as far as employment. 
Natosha what do you do in the academia world? I would love to teach but, a 
mental health counseling degree  is not enough to teach. i think you would 
have more success with dual acreditation in CRC and LPC or social work. As 
an LPC employment opportunities are very limited and most of the agencies 
desire for you to travel and make home visits which could be challenging for 
a visually impaired individual. This is my take on the subject.
