Hi, I have a website with several different types of membership, tied to different access levels in Joomla. These different types of membership need to have different types of profiles (There are a couple questions that I ask for one membership group that are completely nonsensical for the second membership group) how do I go about setting this up? Are there any workarounds?

Best way to do different profile types is using CB Conditional. You can condition tabs/fields based off the users view access level or usergroup for example. I recommend using a CB field for the user to select their profile then condition tabs/fields based off that field. Then you'd use CB Auto Actions to give them a usergroup based off that field. This would allow site wide usage all based off profile type field. See the below tutorials on how to do this.
