Hi, my name is Michel Brennan and I am originally from Eclectic, Al, but relocated to Dothan about 5 years ago. I have worn many hats during my time here, but most noticeably as a mental health therapist. I received my masters in counseling in 2012 and an undergraduate in English in 08’. I started my carrer working with autism and aspergers adolescents developing behavior plans, as well as perentl coaching, socials skills, and learning to better control emotions. Currently I manage 300 mentally ill clients ranging from anxiety all the way to schizophrenia and thought distortions. Working with this population has allowed me to develop excellent interpersonal communication skills as well as treating everyone like a human being regardless of the walk of life they are from. I constantly deal with people on their worst days and am able to help some through dark times. As of late I Read more have decided to equate my job skills into a different type of employment that still lets me work in a helping profession where I am still trying to help people make life better. I have recently had an epiphany and realized that my skills can translate into many different employment opportunities which is why I am writing this letter now. I would be very much interested in meeting with you to and discuss a possible future. I work closely with psychiatrist and psychologist and have excellent knowledge concerning medication and understand how medications can react with each other. I am constantly marketing and providing customer service to my caseload of 300 and would like to discuss options concerning picking up a few nights a week. I currently hold an LPC for mental health counseling. Thanks for the considerations, Michael Brennan
