No chance at all seeing as this position is in the healthcare field. A background check would have to be done, which would rule you out.

There are those with criminal records that do work in some areas of counseling. And can depend where the funding comes from for the program you are working under. And what state license are required for the work.

No, you cannot work in the health related field.
