Greetings!
This is a great place to ask questions and get answers for both Clinical SW and also Professional Counseling. I see the same questions asked over and over (and there are great answers here that can be found from searching the archives.)
Another place where those questions can be asked is by subscribing to a listserv. A few years before I entered grad school., I subscribed to the counsgrads list and lurked and listened. It is an unmoderated list, and with the thousands of members, there is no pressure to post and contribute. There isn't an archive, and any and all questions related to counseling are welcome.
Anyone can join, but the list was created for grad students in clinical mental health counseling. There are a fair number of ug on the list and there are also many licensed MHCs on the list who answer questions.
COUNSGRADS has been developed to help graduate students from across the country and world communicate with one another. Students can talk about classes, internships, papers, and ideas about the profession. This is a very active listserv with up to 50-75 posts per day. Darcy Haag Granello, a counselor educator at The Ohio State University, is the list owner. Questions regarding the listserv can be sent to her at [email protected].
To sign up for the listserv, send an e-mail to
[email protected] with the following in the
body of the message:

Example:
