Just Graduated? Let Us Introduce...
The Life After Graduation Program
Graduating with a Master's degree and transitioning into supervision and direction in counseling is exciting and scary. There are new challenges, lengthy legalese written rules, and opportunities for advancement around every corner. After all, your mission after graduating with an MH master's degree is more than just finding that first counseling job. The mission is to learn how to leverage your knowledge and skills and turn those assets into real value over the next few years of your internship.
LPCA is here to help. Please check our CE workshop page for the "Life After Graduation" Program, where you are able to "practice" on LPCs and experience "real-life" client work.
We encourage you to review all of our services to learn how best LPCA can serve you. LPCA is a reliable resource with all the information you need to succeed during these transitions. LPCA is a resource that breaks down and explains what you need to know in order to get where you want to go.
Let's get you started!
What will you need to get licensed?
Think of licensure requirements as a pyramid. Each element builds on and grows from the components that came before. These components include:
- A strong educational base bolstered by...
- Extensive experience working with clients which is given context by...
- Supervision that happens concurrently with your work experience.
- Finally, orderly documentation allows you to demonstrate your qualifications based on your experience.
Keep that momentum going!
Find opportunities that will give you a good head start and get updates to make sure you stay ahead of the curb.
