Mental Health Careers

This interactive lesson helps students explore real-world careers in the mental health field while building durable academic and interpersonal skills. After selecting a career from a diverse list—including psychologists, therapists, counselors, and wellness professionals—students research key job details and design a one-page infographic using Canva. The project concludes with a class job fair, where students share their findings and complete peer interviews using a career comparison worksheet. With editable slides, a reference guide, and job fair resources, this activity is perfect for Counseling & Mental Health I, General Psychology, or career-focused CTE classrooms.
