I Have a Cousin in Lahaska, Pennsylvania Who Need Substance Abuse Treatment…?

Substance Abuse Counselor?

Question by ilikereadingbooks: Substance Abuse Counselor?
I’m going to become one and it takes a year and I want to become a psychologist so it’ll be great experience. How much does it pay to be a Substance Abuse Counselor? I live in California. Is it like 15 dollars an hour? What do you do for the job? My community college has the program and it’s only one year. It’s like 39 units INCLUDING the internship. Thanks!
