[humanser] Accessibility of National Counselor Exam, National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Exam, and Study Materials

[Rebecca Arrowood]

Hello,

I took the NCE. I had a human reader, read me the exam. Regarding study materials I did not really study at all. However I do remember some classmates using Howard Rosenthal materials. I believe he has audio materials available.  

I am not working in the field anymore but spent two years as an outpatient mental health and substance abuse counselor. I would be more than happy to speak with you sometime regarding my experiences and navigating how to ask and request accommodations etc.  

You could email me at rmarrowood 12 at me.com or call at 920-841-2808. 

Thanks,
Rebecca Arrowood
