While not excited by "the alphabet soup" of letters at the end of her name, each certification addresses an important area of clinical practice. Carol is a Level II Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Board Certified Counselor, North Carolina Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor, Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor, Mississippi Licensed Professional Counselor, Board Certified Telemental Health Provider, and endorsed Chaplain. She enjoys anything outdoors, music, and being at home with her husband as well as playing with their 2 cats.
Jennifer Imsland, M.A., Coach: It takes strength and courage to find a companion to begin looking at the hard places in your life. Therapy is a safe place, allowing you to work through stress, process pain, and refocus on your values. Relationships are sometimes overwhelming and destructive; whether with yourself, partner, coworker, friend or family member. There is hope. Identifying where the challenges are and beginning to make positive changes in your life provide a path to health and for the life you long for. All of this is possible regardless of how others behave or have behaved.
