Question: What mental health care job is this!? 10 points!!?
I want to work in the Psychiatric Care Unit at a hospital with kids and teenagers- mostly ages 12 to 18!.

I want to be the person who leads groups, activities, has one on one sessions, councils, and just helps the kids find out what is wrong, what needs to be done to fix it and help talk them through the tough things, talk to them and tell them how to fix the problems, and possibly help them fix the problem!. And help them confront their parents!. I want to council them alone and in group and help them and fix the problem in a hospital or Psych ward inpatient treatment!.
