Hi Jay, tell me more! Maybe U.S. is a little different than Canada. You can get licensed as an MFT with several different MA and MS degrees, plus 3000 hours internship. I was most attracted to MS or MA in Clinical Psychology, just because I don't have much interest in social welfare programs which I thought would be emphasized more in MSW. I'm most interested in doing therapy.
I saw on the US labor statistics site, median salary for MFT is 30-40k. Seemed low to me based on billing rates, even with sliding scale factored in.
