Thank you everyone for the responses. I think I have some homework to do in researching some of these schools and programs. I've never even heard of the DBH or the DHSc degrees to be completely honest. I tried looking them up on indeed and I didn't see any companies hiring people with these degrees. I'll do some more research on them... but what kind of jobs could I obtain with these types of degrees?
I think the other thing is, aside from the OSU degree, these other options seem to be out of my price range. Faulker is going to cost about 35k for example, EVMS is going to cost about 42k, etc. I'm also completely agreeable to the DMFT degree/ PsyD Degrees in Marriage and Family therapy but these also add up to quite a bit. I was looking at Fuller Seminary for example as it is near me here in LA and the DMFT was going to cost like $77k! Eastern is at 30k which isn't bad at all but the 4-6 year timeline is turning me off from that as well (whereas Fuller was only 2 years).
The DPC option(s) still seem to be the best bang for the buck to be honest. Can anyone else think of anything before I settle on the DPC? Teaching in the future isn't mandatory I would just LIKE that option to be on the table. Teaching a class or two a semester wouldn't be too bad as it would offer me the opportunity to be out of the therapy room one or two days a week. I just don't know if a DPC program is going to open that door.
