Hi Mandy, do you have any qualifications from school/college?

Nursing and counselling are different careers. Although you will gain counselling skills as a nurse, it does not qualify you to be a counsellor. I think you will have to decide between the two.

Thank you for your help. I didn't come away from school with many qualifications. I guess I will just have to sit down and really think about what I want to do.
