Dealing with doubt during counselor development

Nobody has ever become a master counselor overnight.

The journey from beginning to master counselor probably will take many many years. Many new counselors make the mistake of thinking that since they have their masters degree and they pass through there practice um so they must be a master counselors.

Many people including myself have gone through periods of doubt when we've encountered a situation that we thought we would have handled better. Things are often very different from how neat and clean they are in books and case examples.

Something that you need to remember that will help you when your going through a particularly rough patch of doubt is that, all growth comes with anxiety and doubt and if you weren't growing in your field you wouldn't be feeling these emotions and that would mean that you're complacent which means you're not developing at all.
