🙏🏻

We are heartbroken by the tragic loss of a licensed mental health counselor who was killed this week in a violent incident at her place of work in Winter Park, Florida. A current client was also injured and is expected to survive.

Although she was not an FCA member, this loss
impacts our entire counseling community. It is a painful reminder of both the vulnerability inherent in our profession and the courage it takes to show up daily for others in their most difficult moments.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family, loved ones, clients, and colleagues, and we hold in our thoughts all those affected by this senseless act of violence.

During this time, we encourage counselors to lean on one another and to seek support as needed. Taking care of ourselves and each other is essential. FCA remains committed to supporting clinician well-being and safety, and we will share resources on workplace safety, risk assessment, and self-care in the coming days.

May we honor her life and service through compassion, unity, and continued care for our professional community.
