Send in a question or comment via text.

Struggling to find the right anxiety therapist?

Are you curious about how a therapist becomes a therapist?

Let's take a look  through the maze of credentials - from Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) to Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Let's shed some light on the demanding journey of training and education, from undergraduate studies to intensive graduate training and clinical experience.

Understanding how a therapist becomes a therapist, and what that means to you, can go a long way toward untangling confusion that comes with finding qualified mental health assistance.

Wondering about the difference between a master's level therapist and a doctoral level psychologist? I've got you covered!  I'll also cover the role of psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners in the mental health field and explain how to determine which therapist is right when  struggling with anxiety disorders.

Join me on a stroll through the world of mental health professionals. You might pick up a few things that you can use in your recovery journey. xx
