Master’s vs. Doctorate Degrees
Degrees that qualified therapists may have include Ph.D.’s, Psy.D.’s, M.D.’s, Ed.D.’s, and master’s. You can find high-quality help from people with any of these degrees but those with doctorates generally have an extended education. Psychologists will have a doctorate degree in either clinical or counseling psychology. Psychiatrists are doctors of medicine with a specialty in psychiatry. Social workers can either have master’s or Ph.D.’s (in social work). Licensed counselors and therapists can have either as well.
