My current graduate study interests may be classified into three primary domains: (1) organizational; (2) theoretical and clinical practices; and (3) research interests. My organizational interests are as follows: (a) utilizing honor societies, other university organizations, and federal grants for community service and mentoring programs; (b) promoting the individual and collective voices of counseling graduate students, their active participation in professional associations, and the greater recognition of, and intentional integration of counseling graduate students within professional associations; and, (c) utilizing in organizations or associations for personal growth, professional development, and for opportunities to engage in social justice advocacy initiatives to combat all forms of isms. My theoretical and clinical preferences are as follows: (a) social constructionism; (b) solution-focused counseling (strength-based); (c) narrative therapy; (d) feminist therapy tenants (critical and relational-cultural theoretical paradigms); and, (e) cognitive-behavioral therapy. My empirical research interests are as follows: (a) counseling graduate students' leadership development; (b) counseling graduate students' professional identity development; (c) counselor educator mentoring practices and students' personal growth, professional development, professional identity, and leadership; (d) counselor educators' integration of feminist pedagogical tenets and student empowerment; (e) effectiveness of solution-focused, narrative, and feminist treatment modalities; and, (f) effectiveness of integrative community mental health school-based programs
