Hello There!
It's been almost 3 months since I've been licensed and the excitement as worn off (unfortunately). People have asked me this a lot over the past several weeks and honestly, it feels like this:
1. It feels like I've joined a secret society of mental health professionals. I'm treated differently as soon as I say I'm licensed. It kind of makes me mad that's the case because all mental health providers should be treated the same because we're here to serve individuals with mental illness.
2. It's a relief and rewarding to achieve a goal you've been working on for 6 years when you've been told it's take 3-4 years.
I have a NPI number and I'm working on coming up with a different counseling business name to put on my business cards. I've also started working as a therapist on the weekends at the psychiatric hospital I work PRN for. As usual, I'm a busy body but I need to re-engage in doing my online stuff. I'm getting there slowly mentally...I'm getting there :)
Be on the lookout for more updates and posts! I have Blogger on my phone so there's really no excuse for me!
Take Care,
Kimmy :)
