Addictions Therapist

I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, graduated with honors, have worked in the social services/counseling field for 6+ years. I have worked with developmentally disabled, anger management clients, sex offender clients, addiction clients, adolescents with emotional and behavioral disorders. I also almost have my bachelor’s degree in education, have a provisional teaching certificate. Yet, I can’t even get an interview for jobs I am more than qualified for. I am very precise, my resume is good, all the “i’s” dotted and the “t’s” crossed, etc. When I have managed to get an interview, I am prepared with the specifics of the job and the company, I emphasize my good points and only give as bad points something like, I tend to be a perfectionist or a work-a-holic rather than going on and on about my real bad points. I have good references, I look and act professional. I am very efficient and hard working. However, I am 48,female. Broke from divorce. Help!!I am looking for a better job.
