Are there any job types or opportunities in psychology that aren't specifically counseling?

Is there a psycology job where you can just study how the brain works and what causes trauma and things like that instead of counseling people face to face?

Need career guidance for a counseling career

I am a currently a sophomore marketing major. My own experience with mental health makes me want to inspire others and help them live happily. I hope to apply for mental health counseling, family and relationship therapist, social work master (even to a phd counseling psychology.) My biggest worries are whether my outgoing and lively personality could handle so many negative feelings and whether I could actually help them... I love advocate, interview, deeply connect with people. I am ok with marketing jobs but hate the corporate environment. I want to inspire, promote, cause change.. However, I cannot find any other alternative ways to directly impact people's lives except counseling careers. Do you think I need to change major to psychology (only able to do so at the end of my junior year) and continue follow my "dream"? #career #psychology #education #career-counseling #social-work #counseling #life-coach #mental-health-counseling

How do people become therapists/counselors/psychologists Are they hired by companies or clinics? How financially comfortable are they typically?

I want to go into counseling or therapy but am worried about not making enough to be financially comfortable/well-off, since therapy isn't a priority for everyone.
