Yes I can help you with your problems, no I cannot help with your marriage lol


Any other counselors or psych people out there? VA?


Been working out for a long time and now I'm just pushing it up a notch. Here to chat, learn a little, and help those that need it.

    <-- School Counselor

    Also have my MSW and worked for the Army at ACS for a few years. NOT my cup of tea so to speak. I think being married to a Soldier is enough service to my country. :)

    I love it. I miss the therapeutic setting, but I have a great school where I am able to go in to the classes and see my students a lot. It is a small school so the paperwork and admin part is less than it was at the larger school where I worked. And I can't complain about the hours or the time off. :)

    Counselor from WV...hey neighbor :) I'm doing vocational rehabilitation counseling right now (not such a fan) but actually just accepted a job as a school counselor and will be starting in a couple of weeks. I think of it as a challenge to see how long I can stay in my "adult." :)

    haha I bet not....the school time off would rock. I think I'll eventually become a college professor or just open up my own practice/or join a private practice.

    haha I fully understand.

    My FT job is a counselor in a maximum prison
    My PT job is an intensive counselor inside children's home who have been diagnosed ODD/ADHD age 5-18 and who are very violent.
