Sounds like you'll be a good addition to the mental health field since you cared enough to even ask opinions.

I apologize for the late response! But thank you! I really hope to be a helpful professional. And with your help and everyone else's I think I'll get closer and closer to being a good one. Based on your experience I'll be sure to let people I see make their own decisions and I won't force them into doing anything.

Thanks again!!!
