About Us
Counselor101 exists to encourage, educate, and empower helpers to have the maximum impact on clients and communities. Our nation is currently experiencing a shortage of mental health helpers. We understand many factors drive this shortage, but we also believe therapists often struggle with compassion fatigue, imposter syndrome, and feelings of isolation. Our work is just too important to not have the care, connection, and community we need to empower us to excel at the very important work of helping.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE. YOU ARE CAPABLE. YOU MATTER!
The need is great, Counselor101 will help you be ready and confident to meet the needs of your clients and communities! We will help YOU as you help THEM!
