D' Angelo Scott, M Ed., CMHC

The Beginning

When I was growing up, many of my peers and people I met would confide in me. They appreciated how I would listen and reassure them about their values and beliefs. This continued to happen during my time at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and while working with families through Head Start. During my time at Head Start, I realized counseling was a call I had on my life.

The Journey

After completing my bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke. I worked with children and families at the Head Start center for four years as a Family Advocate. Later, I received my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke.

My Training

While working as a Family Advocate, I had individuals and families relate to me their life challenges such as job loss, grief, goal setting, major triumphs and trials, and traumatic experiences that may have hindered them. Families soon began to confide and strategize with me about the goals they wanted to set and achieve. I would take into account how their life situations affected the multiple factors of their lives. While working in a behavioral modification program with children and young adults, I began to realize how a counselor can guide, connect, add value, and impact the community they live in. My credentials as a Strengths- Based Family Worker from Temple University has added to my value as a counselor.

My New Journey

I view the art of counseling as going on a trip with clients. They will take me where they want to go, I’m only the navigator pointing the way. There are roads that may be difficult to travel, some roads may bring new experiences, thoughts or truths, but WE can take them together. I am motivated to assist clients with finding their purpose in life and to live their life to their fullest potential.
