Should a KO become a therapist?

[Guest guest]

This past year, before the family crisis...BP discovery...NC decision,

I had contemplated about becoming a therapist. I found an awesome

program near me that focuses on Transpersonal Psychology (simply

defined spiritual psychology): http://www.itp.edu/about/tp.cfm.

I've LOVED delving into the topics of personal development, collective

unconscious, self-actualization, and I seem to have a gift for

counselling (probably a benefit from being raised by my BP nada).

However, I haven't fully decided if I can/want to become a MFT because

I don't know if I could stand listening to mentally ill people share

their insanity and need help. It cracks me up when I think about it.

I'm all into the solution and the healing, and not interested in the

problem or the illness.

Anyone got some thoughts on this one for me?
