Abstract

I propose to spend the spring 2008 semester, January to August, becoming renewed and reinvigorated to continue providing counseling services for students at Parkland College. My primary intent is to use this time to increase my clinical knowledge and abilities. My responsibilities at Parkland demand that I balance providing academic, career and personal counseling, with crisis intervention as needed. A variety of counseling center surveys and articles have documented a nationwide increase in the number of college students with severe psychological problems in recent years, and the issues which Parkland students bring to my office reflects this trend. I would like to spend this semester reading the latest professional journals and books, and attending a variety of workshops and conferences directly related to these mental health issues.
