A New Journey

Hello All,

I am pursuing my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology.  I began my graduate student internship in May.  I hope to use this blog to share what I have learned in my counseling program.  It is my desire for this blog to become a useful resource for anyone reading it who may find the trials of life overwhelming at times.  I take being a therapist very seriously and look forward to seeing how my clients find hope, healing and restoration.  I love this quote by Dietrich Bonhoeffer, “We must learn to regard people less in the light of what they do or omit to do, and more in the light of what they suffer.”  This quote sums up for me the field of counseling.   We all suffer different things throughout our life and I think all too often we become quick to judge others.  Instead of judging other people, we should take into account what may be going on in their life.   I believe when we begin to look at other people in light of the trials they are facing, we will become more compassionate.
