3. LINKEDIN
• My LinkedIn profile:
http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?trk=tab_pro&id=1
• A great way to network and make connections in your field. Also
you can join groups such as AAMFT and Trauma intervention groups.
• Companies will typically check your references before hiring you, I
never thought of checking my prospective manager’s references?
LinkedIn could be a way to scope out the people that work at the
company you're applying to.
4. ONLINE PRIVACY
• Online Privacy is a huge concern
• I particularly liked this article
http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/12/11/privacy-fades-
• Realizing that what you post can be an “internet
tattoo” and your best line of defense is regulating
yourself. Don’t put out what you don’t want seen.
• Keep it professional.
5. TWITTER #TRMA585
• Loved learning about how to professionally use
Twitter!
• Loved this youtube video!

• Tweeting is much more fun than I thought it would
be, and I love all the sites and awareness that it
brought to important causes.

6. GOOGLE PLUS (G+)
• I had set up a Google+ account before I took this course but rarely
checked it.
• I appreciated setting up the Google alerts! I enjoy a lot of the
information I get sent most days.
• I have also started a picture blog and connected it my Google+
account.

7. PROFESSIONAL FACEBOOK PAGES
• I have yet to make a professional Facebook page.
• I still just use it for personal use with friends and family.
• I feel more comfortable using other professional sites but I do see the
value it making a professional Facebook page if I had a private
practice. This site has a lot of benefits listed.

8. LEARNING FROM MENTAL HEALTH
PROFESSIONALS & ORGANIZATIONS
• I really appreciated Julie Hanks and al of her helpful
insights to posting and blogging as a professional.

therapists as well. The way they had their sites setup
with blogs and links to helpful articles gave me such
inspiration!
9. BLOGS: BLOGGER, WORDPRESS,
TUMBLR, POSTEROUS
• The only blogging I have done is posting some of
my photography.
• I had no idea all of the options out there for
blogging!!! I love the idea of using blogs in a
professional site!
• My favorite blogging sites:
• Tumblr
• Blogger
• Wordpress
11. MANAGING YOUR ONLINE IDENTITY
• There are a lot of components to managing an
online identity.
• Hoot suite was one of my favorite learning
experiences during this course! Though it’s not for
everyone, I feel that it will be a great resource for
me.
12. WEBSITES & DOMAIN NAMES
• I learned a lot about domain names and creating a
website, especially a professional site. This will
definitely help prepare me to make a professional
site in the future, if I choose to do so.
• Again Julie Hanks is so awesome!

difference.

16. FINAL THOUGHTS

after learning about all the ways to professional
educate and spread awareness, I think I might!

the future potential for projects and resources it can
have!
