"...The person one has been is to be replaced by the person to be. The first must die... One is summoned, psychologically, to die unto the old self that the new might be born." ~ James Hollis
CONSULTATION FOR FUTURE THERAPISTS
Interested in career in therapy? Currently in graduate school? Soon to graduate & feeling confused about your next step? Have questions about working in private practice fresh out of grad school?
Let's talk!
Need guidance, support, or clarity around...~ A career as a counselor/therapist
~ Graduate school ~ Classes & assignments ~ Your options for future ~ Working in private practice as an Associate ~ Finding an internship site, post-graduate supervision, exams ~ Marketing, social media content ~ Website design, copy, etc. You might feel overwhelmed and confused, realizing there is so much you didn't learn in school.
Maybe the path you envisioned for yourself seems unreachable, or you keep being discouraged from what you truly want. I've been there! |
Although I always knew exactly what I wanted after graduate school, I looked to other, more seasoned clinicians for support and encouragement. In most cases, all I was left with was advice to "pay my dues" by taking on jobs that did not align with my vision. I struggled to trust myself and felt guilty for not taking on their advice, but ultimately I decided to follow the path I always wanted - working in private practice.
If this is your dream but you have more questions than answers, I would love to help. I finished my masters degree in professional counseling at Texas State University and one thing I felt was missing on my journey to becoming a therapist was having a mentor I trusted and can reach out to when I was unsure and needed answers. This left me spending a lot of my time outside of school listening to podcasts, reading books, taking marketing courses, and meeting with other professionals in the field. Having recently been through the unique struggles new and upcoming therapists face, I understand the confusion and overwhelm that comes with it and I would love to share with you all the things that I learned that helped me on my journey. |
