Skye Howard, Registered Mental Health Counseling Intern

I have been working with children for most of my life. My mother is a Kindergarten teacher, and I spent my childhood helping in her classroom. I worked as a dance teacher throughout high school and as a nanny for ten years before transitioning to working at Milestone Counseling. Working as a nanny with unique children with various needs led me down the path to pursue mental health counseling.

         I graduated with my B.S. in Psychology in 2020 and graduated from Stetson University with an M.S. in Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in play therapy and expressive arts in 2023. This year will be my third year working at Milestone Counseling. I am working towards a certification in Play Therapy and am interested in pursuing a certification in EMDR.

I am passionate about meeting people where they are and helping them get where they want to go. I was heavily involved in dance, art, chorus, and theater throughout school, and love using these passions to help within the therapy process. My office is filled with art supplies and board games.

         I love using my past experiences and passions to help serve the community. I am so grateful to have been led to the counseling profession.
