Congratulations to our social work graduate student, Cadence, on her recent graduation! 🎓
Cadence has been an intern with the Resiliency Center for the past two years, helping in many roles. We wish her nothing but the best as she pursues the next steps as a social worker. 🎉
Below is a testimony from Cadence on her internship experience.
“My clinical practicum at the Resiliency Center was an invaluable experience that I will take with me throughout my career. This placement allowed me to observe different types of therapeutic work, ask questions, refine my skills, and ultimately establish trust in my clinical expertise. To be able to grow in partnership with kids and their families was beyond rewarding. Each day, I was able to support clients through conversations, making art, and even spending time with four-legged friends (shout out to the WMU Therapy Dog Clinic). I received collaborative support and encouragement from my supervisor, peers, and colleagues at the Resiliency Center that helped me remain hopeful, engaged, and inspired. It is bittersweet to say goodbye so soon! I am excited to embark on the next steps of my journey after graduation.”
