Darcey: An After-Hours Chat -- The State of Mental Health

In this episode of Sage in Time, we meet Darcey, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and one of Derek’s former colleagues.  Our time with clients had ended for the day and we decided to simply catch up on various topics that affect a variety of our current and potential clients.  We moved quickly through the topics of:

substance abuse credentials
telemed vs. in-office or “shared space” therapy
why we both opted to increase our licensure to multiple states
working with teens and younger children
college preparation in modern times 
building and maintaining social support networks as adults
and how we keep up with what’s new in the world of offering the best care to our clients.

We also revisited the topic of what therapy might look like when you have a therapist that is a good “fit” for your treatment needs.  

We've already decided we'll be chatting again from time to time.  Subscribe to keep up with Darcey or any of my guests.

If you live in New York or Pennsylvania and are interested in learning more about working with me in the context of mental health therapy, check out my profile at the Sage in Time website. Unfortunately, I am not able to accept any Managed Medicare or Medicaid, regardless of the branding.

I am a sex-positive AuDHD mental health counselor who specializes in griefwork and relationships, working within the AuDHD space, supporting those of diverse sexual orientations and genders, of those engaged in non-traditional relationship structures, and I offer services to individuals, couples, families, or other systems of multiple individuals.

A special thank you to Melissa Reagan for providing the voice talent over the episode theme music.
