Would I be able to begin my journey as a recreational therapist with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology? & What major should I choose for my master's degree if I don't obtain it in recreational therapy? I just moved from CA to AR and decided I want to pursue a career in recreational therapy, preferably in a mental health facility setting. I would like to pursue my master's degree as well, but the University of Arkansas (which is the most affordable option for me) doesn't have that as a major. Depending on these responses I might just pursue my masters directly in RT online somewhere else.

Is it better to pair a double major in kinesiology and athletic training with a minor in psychology or a minor in recreational therapy if I ultimately want to become a pediatric physical therapist?
I will be majoring in kinesiology as a pre-physical therapy student, but I am also majoring in athletic training so that I can meet the requirements for an athletic training certificate. My goal is to become a pediatric physical therapist and work with kids fighting potentially terminal illnesses. I am wondering if it would be more beneficial for me to minor in psychology or recreational therapy. #physical-therapist #physical-therapy #college-minor #majors-and-minors #developmental-psychology #recreational-therapy
