Psychologists are not allowed to give advice, or so I've read in legal realms. Our society is too litigious and it can be easily argued that a patient is incapable of thinking for himself and so, when he followed the psyche's advice, this awful, surprising thing happened and now it's all the psyche's fault.
Nowadays, psyche's only work with getting the person to open up enough to learn how to express himself and to gradually work around to having the patient learn how to fix his own problems without advice.
I know this isn't a direct answer to your question, I just didn't want you to get your hopes up about becoming a modern-day psychologist.
How about becoming a high school teacher? Just make sure you have a Kevlar vest..

There are lots of careers out there that allow you to do just that help people. In todays world the average person changes their career 3 times before they retire. Sometimes no one knows just exactly they want to do until they try it, you may do 7 different jobs before you uncover the right one that makes you feel good. The best way to decide is volunteer at diffent places to see if they fit you. If your in school talk to the consuler about setting up times where you can actually go into companies and see what you like. I think its called job shadowing.

Isn't Social Work someplace you help people and give advice? If you're just graduating high school, don't get excited , most people never end up what they tell everyone they are going to be or do. I'm 50 plus and I still don't know what I want to be! Just go to school and take your basics.Maybe you want to be in the Medical field. They help and advise and listen to people.

Well, the obvious answer is to become a pschologist or shrink. This career option would allow you to get paid to give advice to people.

maybe you could open an advice column in a newspaper or be a psychiatrist and help people with their problems.
