My goal is to practice as a Chemical Dependency Counselor or an Addictions Counselor during my current enrollment for my Bachelors so that I can gain experience and independence in the field of counseling. I plan on growing in my education and eventually becoming a Clinical Child Psychologist. I have always loved helping people, even in beginner jobs like food service or retail; I have always loved giving advice to people. Helping people is my goal in life, and I am honored to say that I have the privilege to do so by being on the educational path I need for it.
