In this episode, we are honored to be joined by Dr. Christine Suniti Bhat, an OCA past president; and soon-to-be president-elect of the American Counseling Association this summer. In continuing the Meet the President series, we are inspired by Dr. Bhat's stories of how she has connected with others in her profession through chance meetings, what she values in our profession; and how we as counselors can continue the advocacy work needed to strengthen and grow our profession, especially by using positive approaches that instill hope in our clients, colleagues, and ourselves.
Article Mentioned - Per Dr. Bhat
Dr. Holly J. Hartwig Moorhead (CSI CEO), Dr. Kelly Duncan (ACES Executive Director), and Dr. Sylvia Fernandez (CACREP President & CEO), and were invited by Dr. Michael Brubaker, senior editor of Chi Sigma Iota’s Journal of Counselor Leadership and Advocacy, to author "The critical need for professional advocacy: A call to the counseling profession to value professional counselor identity.”
Please take the time to read this important article! The article will remain available from Taylor and Francis as an open access article through May as part of the new issue of JCLA that will be published later this spring. After May, CSI members can access this article (and any other JCLA articles) for free anytime by logging into their CSI Member Profile and accessing JCLA under the “Publications” section.
