Sweeney will present Counseling for Wellness: An Overview of Models, Factors, and Research and lay the foundation for subsequent webinars in CSI's Wellness Series. Perhaps nothing distinguishes professional counseling more than its historical and philosophical roots in optimizing human development across the life span. And perhaps no one has positioned professional counselors to rightfully claim an essential part in defining and implementing wellness into human services that Dr. Jane E. Myers upon whose research we base our work in all settings and across cultures and countries.

In a short span of time, we will provide a brief history including key components of definitions of wellness, benefits of a wellness style of life, overview of two widely used models of wellness, including factors useful in counseling interventions discovered through years of research with assessment instruments based upon Adlerian counseling theory. Finally, we will present a brief synopsis of wellness findings on students, faculty and practitioners of counseling. Registration for the webinar<http://www.csi-net.org/link.asp?e=bhatc@ohio.edu&job=1778059&ymlink=3362204&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ecsi%2Dnet%2Eorg%2Fevent%2FWebinar%2D2015%2D03%2D25> will close at noon EDT on Wednesday.

The presenter will introduce Sue’s (2010) concept of sexual orientation microaggression, the concept of minority stress applied to same-sex couples, and a brief summary of the interdisciplinary research literature on gay couples compared to heterosexual couples. In addition, the presenter will share the stories of long-term gay couples in their own words, including: how they met in an area without a large gay community, their coming out stories, their positive and negative experiences with their families and communities, how they have maintained their relationships over many years, and how they believe their relationships compare to heterosexual relationships.

In sum, the overall goal of this program will be to provide participants with a better understanding of the environmental challenges for gay couples; thus, providing participants with the knowledge they need to best serve their clients, future clients, and supervisee’s clients who are in same-sex relationships. Dr. Marszalek has been a counselor educator for over fifteen years, currently as core faculty with the M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at Walden University.
