Yesterday I went to an internship fair/networking event for my major and it was the coolest thing of my career searching experience thus far.
What I mean is there isn't usually booths at career fairs for anything related to my field. So being able to walk into a room with 10+ opportunities relevant to my field was like walking into a candy store.
There were so many places that were genuinely interested in me, places that used adventure therapy and places in provo, places that use all sorts of interventions and serve a variety of populations. I met people who use my favorite things as therapy and they gave me their number to call them. It was super exciting
By the end I didn't have the mindset of struggling to find a place to volunteer this summer, I left trying to plan out how I could intern at two different places both of which I am really excited to work with and with which to gain more experience.
Here's to a bright looking future!

That's awesome! I think it's cool that you are that proactive in seeking out those opportunities. I usually get caught up in the busyness of school and forget to do a lot of those things
