    Thanks for the update!! I start school on Thursday, and even though I’m two years away from graduating, all of your info is SO helpful. 🙏🏻
    And I’m happy for you that you’re finding your groove in your practice. So awesome.

      I think this is the thing with us counselors we can’t to know all the things before we have a chance to experience them. I am done with year 1 of being a registered intern and I’ve learned so much. Show up , do your hours, learn, see what type of clients you like working with and go in that direction.

      @@kdcounseling hi, thank you so much for taking the time to reply. This helped assuage my fears a lot.
      I’ve wanted to walk down this path for a long time but different types of fears have held me back.
      Have you enjoyed being an associate? Do you have 1-2 years left before full licensing? I’ve watched so many of your videos and really appreciate you:)

    Can you also talk about the fact that somenplaces you have to pay for supervision? I think its important for people to know and how to navigate through the business side of our field.

Actually, any preperatory info would be great!! Thanks and keep posting your videos!!

      Hi! I watched a lot of The Humberman lab podcast, specifically the ones on different disorders it’s a great resource. Doc Snipes on UA-cam is a great resource, and other creators that are specialist on whatever you’re seeking out.
