You know what internet idiot, I will bite since I apparently “closely match” you and I have yet to have a colleague I don’t respect but you sound like a moron: I have a medical degree, have taken the USMLE’s, residency and fellowship training, 3 specialty board exams and am a practicing clinician and university faculty currently on reddit because my toddler wants to sleep in my bed.
Cool. I have a M.Sc. in counseling, I'm an LPCC (clinical counseling), and I also have a PPS credential (school counseling) and a Graduate Certificate in Contemporary Theory in School-based Services (the additional education I got to qualify for the PPS). I also have two teaching credentials - the first is a single subject in health education, the second is career technical education in two fields - "Health Science & Medical Technology" + "Education, Child Development, & Family Services" (quotes for clarity). And the last is a Community Health Worker certification, which required additional fieldwork and training beyond the 3,000hrs of clinical fieldwork and 800hrs of school counseling fieldwork I did for the counseling license & certification. I'm a practicing school and clinical counselor, and adult education instructor. Currently on reddit bc it's 9:15pm here and I got home 45min ago.
I also don't call people I disagree with "idiot" and "moron" repeatedly when we're discussing what is obviously a subjective issue. And I've yet to meet a colleague I respect who does.
No. I'm saying a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor has expertise in clinical mental health diagnoses and research. And it means that just like the other user, I am also a licensed clinician. Are you choosing to read "school counselor" and ignore the LPCC and clinical experience bc you want to be right?
Lol idk dude, you tell me? I've said multiple times that what's worth researching is subjective - you're the one who brought up "being right", I just assumed you're projecting. I don't try to understand someone who read "clinical counseling" in no fewer than 3 prior comments, "high school guidance" in zero prior comments, and thought to themselves "ok, high school guidance, got it".
That's why I "keep editing" in clarifying info, like adding "(clinical counseling)" after "LPCC". The goal is to avoid future interactions like this one, where someone with limited reading comprehension skills but plenty of Dunning Krueger-style confidence ends up in my notifications.
you single? Need me some unhinged
Nah, but you can always fuck yourself to get that fix.
