Im a therapist, working in an agency because I just graduated and cant do private practice for 3 years (under an agency). Working with people around our age (16-30) who have had trauma in their lives. I provide group and individual psychotherapy as well as cognitive behavioral treatment. I am the only one there at this point and also have to put a system in place for other therapists to eventually come on board and follow by. lol I think thats enough info to bore you. ;) |

sounds pretty cool. i dont think id have patience to deal with kids but im guessing that if they expect you build a system for others to follow they mustve recognized ur leadership skills knowledge and experience of the industry. id say that you should really focus on building a very effective and budget friendly system that can show simply why they hired you in the first place. at least thats what id do. :D |

Im heading to cape cod to meet up with my gf after work tomorrow night then coming back before work then a long night of clubbing in boston before a LONG saturday bbq/deck party then sunday is funk d'void in cambridge. Its going to be very fun/tiring :) |

| I am currently doing my internship at a hotel near the Grand Central Station. I work as assistant intern for managers in housekeeping department. There are lots of rooms to check for a day and it is crazy. I get crazy to punch in for F/D(Front Dest) so they can sell rooms for guest. In addition,I have to deal with some crazy house men and women. Even some managers from the department have crazy characters. I think the job is tough but you can have some funs if you can find nice people around. To me, I can't complain more. It is ok to me. ;) |

I dont do any of the budgeting/business stuff, I focus more on the practice, techniques, and theory in providing the best (mental health and psychotherapy)treatment to the individuals.
They dont have ANY mental health professionals currently working there, so I am going to be coming up with a plan for the best assessment and diagnosis based on my own work with the clients and helping other social workers and therapists that come on board.
haha boring to the rest of the world but I love it. I dont *DO* normal, I do crazy --->:crazy: :nervous:
I am excited, and trust me, you are not the only one who doesnt want to work with people our age!! they are fakin nuts sometimes and I love it!!!! |
