I recently received a diploma for youth mental health coaching from the AACC, Light University. Today, I received the official credentials!
I am now officially a BOARD CERTIFED Mental Health Coach!
This is more than a credential for me, it’s a testimony of God’s faithfulness and a reflection of the standard I hold for the people I serve.
What sets me apart as a coach is simple: I am a lifelong learner who refuses to offer anything I’m not willing to live out myself. I set goals, take intentional action, and stay grounded in the “why” behind my work. I seek the Lord for wisdom, strength, and direction, and then I do the work, even when the path is slow, bumpy, or has unexpected detours.
This certification feels different because it reminds me of a beautiful truth: it doesn’t matter what others say, if God wills it, He will make it happen! It also feels like a smile from my Heavenly Father, reminding me that I am walking in the very work He has called me to. That assurance gives me a great sense of fulfillment, gratitude, and joy as I continue serving others with excellence and purpose.
My coaching is built on that foundation of faith, perseverance, and excellence. I am committed to providing high‑quality, Christ‑centered support that empowers my clients to grow, heal, and walk confidently in the purpose God has for them.
To my former and current clients: Thank you for entrusting me with your care. It is truly an honor to be part of your journey.
To my future clients: I can't wait to meet you and see what God has for your life!
Peace & Blessings,
- Carolyn Vargas, MA., CLC, PMHC
