Susan Medlin, Counseling Intern

Even though I have spent my entire life within the church and majority of my adult life in ministry, I felt like there was more that I could do to help the people around me. I have always been drawn to people who were hurting and desired to walk with them in their healing journeys. While working in the medical field and ministry, it became evident that people needed an outlet to share their feelings and work through their pain. In 2018, I decided to pursue my masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Liberty University. I am thankful to be able to attend a school that teaches integration with Biblical principles and psychology. I completed my practicum with Sentara RMH Behavioral Health, and plan on graduating in May of 2023. It is a privilege to be able to complete my internship with Journey Counseling Ministries and to come along side each client as we walk through life’s challenges together.
