Most counseling fields require a human sciences related degree, odd that you can't put the two together.
Edit: psychology is a study of an individual behaviour, whereas sociology is a study of a group behaviour and since humans tend to live in groups they generally tend to exhibit behaviour reflective of the group they live in.
TLDR: Individuals act different when they're a part of a group, see: group psychosis.
I would have thought that was doing psychology, not sociology.
Idk if post edits pop up, but I edited my answer to be less mean, sorry I'm drinking.
No worries, I wasn't offended - I don't get offended, anyway. Just a legitimate question and you gave a decent response, seems I learned something today.
Don't drink yourself into the floor and have a good evening.
