What is the difference between occupational therapy and rehabilitation counseling?

Eeyore3333 asked:


I work in the field of developmental disabilities, and I love my job, but it just doesn’t pay enough to support my family. I am looking into getting my Masters to be an occupational therapist or rehabilitation counselor, but I want to really understand what these jobs entail in the day-to-day. I have a better grasp on occupational therapy than rehab counseling. Can anyone help me?

    I do not know what rehab counseling entails, as a matter of fact, I have never heard of it. Go for OT, it pays well and there are jobs available!
