When I started undergrad at LSU, I always knew I wanted to pursue a private practice in therapy. I completed my MSW at LSU to later achieve my license in clinical social work. I was fortunate to serve in many different settings (healthcare, schools, families, etc.) where I found a common concern in all of them- the need for therapy.
Now that I am in this position working with individuals in therapy, I don't take for granted the unique opportunity I have with each client I get to work with.
