Built by a counseling student who got tired of Googling licensure requirements at 2am
Hey there. I'm a second-year counseling student in New York, and I built this platform because I was drowning in the same chaos you probably are.
Picture this: It's 2am. You're trying to figure out if your state requires 3,000 or 3,500 clinical hours. You've got 12 tabs open—state board PDFs from 2019, conflicting Reddit threads, and someone's blog post that *might* be outdated. You're stressed, confused, and wondering if you're even on the right track.
That was my breaking point. I thought: "Why doesn't this exist already?"
So I built it. Not as a startup or business school project—but as the exact platform I desperately needed and couldn't find anywhere else.
State board websites are a maze. PDFs are outdated. Nobody can give you a straight answer about whether your supervision counts.
Working 20+ unpaid clinical hours per week while paying grad school tuition. Watching my bank account drain. Feeling guilty about needing a side hustle.
My cohort is great, but we're all stressed. Random therapist Facebook groups don't get the student experience. I felt alone in the struggle.
Spreadsheets for hours, notes scattered across apps, no clear view of progress toward licensure. Just constant anxiety about "Am I on track?"
Every feature here solves a real problem I faced (or am still facing). The licensure database? Because I spent hours decoding state board PDFs. The financial tools? Because I needed to budget my way through unpaid practicum. The community chat? Because I wanted to connect with students who actually get it.
This isn't a polished tech startup. It's a platform built by someone in the trenches, actively improving it based on feedback from users like you.
This platform exists to help counseling students survive and thrive—not to extract maximum profit. If a feature doesn't serve that mission, it doesn't belong here.
I'm honest about limitations. Licensure data was last verified January 2026—I tell you that upfront. Your notes are private—I don't sell your data. No hidden fees or surprise charges.
I'm actively building and improving based on user feedback. Found a bug? Have an idea? I want to hear it. This platform evolves with the community.
This isn't a side project I'll abandon. I'm committed to maintaining and improving this platform throughout my own journey and beyond.
