"Hello! My name is Mary Claire Schibelka, and I have been a Professional Counselor in Chicago, IL since 2019. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling after graduating with a 4.0 GPA, and I passed the National Counselor Exam (NCE) on my first attempt. My background also includes a Bachelor of Science in Special Education and an active teaching certificate, allowing me to understand the unique needs of diverse learners.

I am currently offering a structured 12-week tutoring program specifically designed to help candidates succeed on the National Counselor Exam. Over the course of 12 weeks, I cover all six content areas of the NCE, including Professional Practice and Ethics; Intake, Assessment, and Diagnosis; Areas of Clinical Focus; Treatment Planning; Counseling Skills and Interventions; and Core Counselor Attributes. My program emphasizes test-taking strategies, so you'll be equipped with techniques proven to improve performance.

I provide all the materials you need to succeed, including a PDF with 800 practice questions, study guides, and videos. Whether this is your first time preparing for the NCE or you're retaking the exam, my program is designed to build your confidence and knowledge every step of the way. Let's tackle the NCE together and achieve your goal of becoming a licensed counselor!" less...
