Counseling Awareness Month

April is #CounselingAwarenessMonth!
We wanted to use this month to highlight our Counseling Lead, Claire Bailey! Claire has been on our team for over a year now. When she was still in school, she thought her passion for teaching others was going to lead her to a career in the educational field. Halfway through college, she began experiencing some mental health challenges that she had no idea how to navigate, leading her to pursue a degree in psychology and counseling.
"That's when I learned that counseling is education, too." Claire says. "You're educating people on how to take care of their mental health and manage these challenges."
Claire describes her personally approach to counseling as very person-centered. She makes an intentional effort to put herself in each of her client's shoes to better understand and serve them. Her favorite part of her job is the personal growth she gets from practicing new clinical skills every day.
When Claire is not working, she enjoys reading, cooking, and spending time with her five dogs! We are so thankful to have her on our team and to show her some much-deserved appreciation this month.
