In today’s episode, I continue the conversation about experts and certifications in the mental health field.
I encourage all of you to seek professional support as you navigate this journey. But, it can be quite difficult to understand what “professional” actually means.
Does being “certified” qualify someone as an expert? Does it provide the understanding and training necessary to help guide someone who’s healing from trauma?
Let’s get into what certified means… and doesn’t and why it matters. I’ll share what is important to look for when considering someone to support you through the journey.
