#CounselorsHelp Growing up and still to this day my Dad has been a minister for Preston Road Church of Christ. As a part of his training and learning for this job he learned techniques like a counselor doers because people come to him and ask for help too. So growing up he didn't have the official job as a counselor but he knew what he was doing. To me it was very easy to talk to him and not just because he was my Dad but also because he was a great listener and usually gave great advice. With this being said I strongly believe that it is because of his training that he was able to listen and able to communicate so well with me.

If I had to describe myself in one word it would be caring. Through out my life when people are asked to describe me to others one word that has be constantly repeated is the word caring. Hearing this and knowing this it is something that I can take pride in. I care for anyone even if I barely know them. If I see someone crying my first reaction is to ask them what is wrong and what can I do to help. It something that just comes natural to me I guess. I never want to be able to say I have turned away from helping someone that needed help even if it is something that is little and just needed someone to talk to. I want to be the person that is there for them and help them. I want to be the person that cares.
