I am a bilingual LCSW but no longer doing counseling. I am a very energetic, people person and I thrive working with people. I love helping others but counseling 24/7 just isnt for me. I have been doing more resource giving lately and is not cutting it either. What else can I do? I feel as though I am stagnant in my job and not feeling fulfilled. I just want to feel as though I am making a positive impact. What else is there for me to do? Feedback is truly appreciated!

Have you ever dealt with a colleague that believes in extremely (in my opinion) outdated or even just false claims and treats them as scientific facts?

In theory I could see this working situationally, but as a whole philosophy regardless of the patient's issue I think it's ridiculous.
