The Harbor Counseling team would like to provide an update about Micaiah. During this time, she is still out of the office but will hopefully be returning soon.

Please keep following us for more updates!

Important Update!

Congratulations, Micaiah!

11/5/2021

As many of you know, Micaiah has been working diligently with our team over the last year to complete her practicum and internship hours.
Micaiah will be graduating with her Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky on December 9, 2021!
Due to the regulations set forth by the North Carolina Board of Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselors she will not be able to practice during the period of time in which the Board is processing her application. This means that after 12/9/21 she will be out of the office until she obtains her licensure.
Hopefully this will only take about a month!
Micaiah has been working very hard to complete her application and we are looking forward to her return to the office as a freshly Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate!

Thank you Sarah!
