Is there a reason there isn’t a therapist career?

No, I just think that they haven't had the right pack to do it. You can't be an architect, a librarian or a truck driver either and none of those are exactly controverisal. Also, we do have stuff in the game that some people might consider more controverisal than a therapist.

I hope they will since they have psychology degree

Me too. I’m actually a psychologist irl, so I would love it.

I personally don't want it because I don't want to be reminded of mental illness.

I can't think of any reason why a therapist career would be controversial. They probably just haven't added it because they're focusing on ultra-hip, super trendy careers instead :#

You don’t have to be mentally ill to seek out a therapist.

there is a mod career for this

I would really enjoy a therapist career. Because if the Doctor career is for physical health, then a career dealing with mental health would be cool. I hope it comes to the game soon.

I think there's no reason behind it all. It's just a thing, it's not in the game like so many other thousands of careers that aren't in the game. It wouldn't be possible to have them all anyways so they just pick popular and/or trendy. They might also feel that the doctor can cover this. Doctor can mean a lot of things and people could "pretend" they are therapists.

I had a mod a couple years ago for a counselor. Here is a MOD for therapist:https://sims4-mods.com/helene912-s-mental-therapist-career

Also MOD the sims has this one which is the one I used and liked a lot: http://modthesims.info/d/622945/therapist-career-updated.html
