Series 2 Episode 6: Dr. Ela (Pamela) Cassellius and Dr. Brian Fidler Chat About Practicum, Growth,

Join Dr. Ela (Pamela) Cassellius, Associate Professor and Director of Residency in the CCU School of Counseling, as she and Dr. Brian Fidler chat about her practicum experiences, discovering impact on clients, and learning from those metaphorical (and literal?) "falling on our faces" moments. Dr. Cassellius shares her story with warmth and humor, highlighting the joy in the journey of becoming a professional counselor by means of grounded supervision, the work of gaining counseling skills, and allowing room for her humanity and genuineness. Her humility and wisdom come through in this sharing-as-colleagues conversation. Counseling students in all stages of the program will enjoy sitting at the table with her as she take us behind the scenes into her professional world, her walk with Christ, and her love for students in the CCU counseling program. Through the conversation, you will be encouraged to seek out growth-focused supervision and mentorship, advocate for your own growth and healing, and develop compassion for yourself as you become a professional counselor.
