I don't know if any of you remember when I mentioned that I would like to go back to my career as a Family Therapist, emphasis on children.
Well, my time has come! I started going to therapy again, just to clear my head and get my thoughts on track. I was falling into depression and all that "wonderful" stuff (being sarcastic). My therapist asked me why haven't I been pursuing my career again. I told her the long story of how I ended up doing day care again and she came up with an awesome idea.
She wants me to get back on track, gain my lost hours again, take the exam, get licensed and come work "with" her, possibly as a partner in her and her husband's private practice! Yes, it will be a lot of work, but I am so excited! I'm so excited that I am nervous.
So far, I had my intern registration number reinstated with the Board Behavioral Sciences. They let me know that, out of the 3000 intern hours that I completed back in 2007, 1500 have expired. I was very concerned that all of them had expired. So, when I heard that I still have 1500 hours still on the book!....I became even more excited!! Today, we established an agency to do some of my hours under and then I will also be working with her as well.
I wll be doing my hours on the weekends. My nervousness is being able to run the day care during the week and doing my hours on the weekends is a lot. I must be careful with the fibromyalsia to not become exhausted. I'm also nervous because I have been out of the field for 3 years. My knowledge is quite rusty! That mean in between working the day care and being at the office on weekends, I will be studying!...whew!
The goal is definitely worth the sacrifice!
Positive thoughts and prayers!!!.....:-D

Good for you. God Bless you as you move forward to that career goal.
Thanks Ladies,
It will definitely be a challenge. My grandmother use to tell us all the time, "If it ain't worth working for, it ain't worth having!" and "No use complaining cause you still have to do what you have to do!" and "Complaining only makes for more work!" :-D
Good for you, Presious! The best of luck.
I'm soo happy!
