How Do I Become a Substance Abuse Counselor in North Carolina?

Question by Penelope: How do I become a Substance Abuse Counselor in North Carolina?
I have my Masters Degree in Speech-Language Pathology, but I am very interested in a career change. My brother died a year ago from a drug overdose and even before he died, I was considering changing professions to become an addiction/substance abuse counselor. I can’t find any helpful advice on the internet given my situation. Do I need to start from scratch or does having a Masters Degree help me? Do I just need a certification, or do I need a second Masters Degree? What are my options? If I could participate in online courses, that would be the most ideal for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!
