Innovation in counseling doesn’t start with technology—it starts with imagination, leadership, and a willingness to rethink how we prepare the next generation of counselors. 🌱

ACA's latest Counseling Today feature, “Dreaming About Innovation,” focuses on our very own Dr. Scott Young here in CED. Scott has been very intentional and impactful in his work on campus, and in the counseling field, around innovation and impact!
