I will say if you go for therapist...go for an MSW. It is the only truly 'recognized' credential in this field. Most of therapist jobs require an MSW. Anything else, like an MA in 'Counselling' rarely cuts it. The programs are tough, and tough to get into, but your experience, as you say, may help. It's a very rewarding career, and regardless of misconceptions, the money is great.
Let me know if you are interested,
Jay
