New counselors have different needs than experienced ones. We’re unsure of ourselves, and entering a whole new world with new rules. It’s easy to forget how scary that is once a counselor has been in practice for a few years.

That’s why we need each other. I wouldn’t have survived my practicum and internship without my fantastic supervisor and counseling intern friends. I want EVERY new counselor to have that opportunity.

This is a social networking site developed exclusively for new counselors. Even if you are studying online, have a horrendous supervisor, or are practicing in a remote area, you can still have access to support and encouragement from others who are going through the same thing you are.

The purpose of this site is to link new counselors with their peers, and with experienced counselors who wish to provide mentorship. It is also to ask questions and have them answered, and hear about the latest information relevant to beginning counselors. It’s a site to help you belong, and give you an anchor as you explore the many different nuances of your new career.
