Pros

Working with children is very rewarding. Access to trainings is a plus as well.

Cons

Low pay, Entry level salaries even for fully licensed therapists with years of experience. Untrained supervisors who focus on Thomason’s “bottom line” rather than work/life balance or practitioner’s mental health. Quantity always wins out over quality. LOTS of turnover mainly due to low pay.
