My name is Imani, and I am an LCSWA working with L&B Counseling. As a new therapist, I quickly realized that there are many tools that can be difficult to locate when needed for my clients. So I compiled this list of resources for therapists as a support. Below you will find guidance for LCSWAs and LCMHCAs in regards to licensure. You will also find resources for general practice, including tips for notetaking and suicide prevention resources for clients in crisis. I hope this list is a support for you on your journey as a therapist!
