In school, as counselors we are taught theory, technique, facilitation skills, listening skills, and how to ask the right open-ended questions. However, we are typically not taught that our capacity to support the mental wellbeing of our communities lies far beyond the therapy room. If our desire is to impact the most vulnerable populations of people who need support from helping professionals, we must find a greater platform upon which to serve. In this presentation, you will be introduced to what it really means to color outside the lines as a counselor and tap into what they didn’t teach us in school. We have a variety of ways to impact the world through media, speaking, coaching, consulting, writing, social media and more that you may have never even thought about. It’s time to color outside the lines and make that powerful impact as we are much more than just counselors-we are catalysts of wellbeing for the world!
