Counselor Cover Letter Example

Forty percent of my sessions at Bluebird Counseling Group happen over telehealth now, and neither format gets a lighter version of my attention: I carry a caseload of 28 weekly sessions treating adults with anxiety, depressive, and trauma-related disorders across whichever screen or room they show up in. I want that same caseload steadiness at a practice that measures care by outcomes, not just filled appointment slots.

Routine outcome measurement backs that up: clients average a 9-point PHQ-9 reduction by session 12, and 81 percent reach clinically significant improvement on standardized measures. My trauma-focused caseload of 10 EMDR clients has produced 7 completed reprocessing protocols within 20 sessions, and the 10-member DBT skills group I facilitate holds an 88 percent retention rate across consecutive 24-week cycles, well above what most groups that size manage.

I hold LCMHC licensure in North Carolina and a National Certified Counselor credential, practice CBT, DBT, and EMDR, and led the adoption of routine outcome measurement across our 6-clinician practice, lifting measure completion at intake and review from 45 percent to 92 percent. Earlier posts at Cardinal Behavioral Health and Summit Counseling Associates gave me a community mental health caseload and 1,100 supervised hours before I ever carried my own license.

I'd welcome the chance to talk through your intake process and caseload mix at [Practice name], and I can start seeing clients as soon as credentialing allows.
