Attention All-- Therapists/Counselors/social workers/psycologists?



Recommended Posts

So I've seen a huge thread for nurses! There seem to be alot- which is great they are needed(yay)!

I am curious as to how many human service workers we have here-- I've read some posts and the replies seem very therapeutic/techniquey lol

So-- I will be graduating w my master of science in mental health counseling in June and will finish all my hours in sept!!! I take the NCE on Saturday!!!

Anyone else in this profession??

I'm an LCSW - have been a therapist for 14 years. Love seeing my own therapist while on this journey - this surgery, the decision, and then the process afterwards is an intense one. I recommend it for everyone trying to reprogram their overweight brain.

I got my masters in Texas and it was the same degree program for those interested in working in the schools or wishing to become an LPC! I was only ever interested in working in the schools.

I'm a school counselor in CA, but my grad program was dual: school counseling and marriage and family therapy. I don't ever want to do private practice though.

Well I have a degree in SW that I do not use. I have been debating completing my masters. I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up ;)

I have too many passions!

Nothing compares to the schedule of a school counselor! And I like dealing with a bunch of stuff (college and career counseling in addition to personal/social).
