Summaries like these are difficult because everyone is treated individually and differently. If there were cookie-cutter solutions, therapists wouldn't have jobs and we could just google it. And when people are looking for a therapist, everyone has their eye out for a slightly different thing. What are YOU looking for? It'd be great to make a profile designed specifically for you. That's basically what therapy is in a nutshell: you bring yourself to therapy and you get an individualized experience designed exactly for your next steps of development and growth. People's needs are very different.
Outpatient was the destination and I landed in 2007. Prior to that (while in school) I worked in Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services, Family Based Mental Health Services, and a Residential Treatment Facility. Bachelor's in Psych. Master's in Counseling/Systems. Post-grad in Gestalt.
I'm extremely fortunate in the sense that I don't actually "work" anymore because I love providing treatments. It's genuinely fun, rewarding, and inspiring. People who are interested in self-improvement are the best people on the planet.
