Hi xaprithecat,
My first instinct is that you should focus on the psychology/becoming a therapist. For one thing, most people who see you will not have a mental illness, but will be going through: divorce/death/someone else’s addiction/clearing the past. A second thing, when you are paying for therapy, you tend to actually listen to your therapist and follow their gently led questions that you will answer and work on by the next appointment. (Unlike friends!) Lastly, there are many types of paths within that path that you can go into: Life coach, Christian marriage counselor, social service for the elderly/youth, etc., etc.!
Music is great, but with the arts, unless you play music and do art all the time on your own anyway, it generally doesn’t work out. If you love music, it is best to just enjoy it or make it into a weekend hobby band ~ for fun, not money. Money changes the artistic vibe and tends to be harder to come by.
Sending Clarity, Luck, and Light,
Inky
