The Saga of Postmodernism for Counselors

Counselors often face important questions as to where the values they express in their work are rooted. In this episode we look to postmodern philosophers for insight into how we know what is the correct way to conduct counseling and understand clients. We are joined by Dr. Givens. Dr. Joel Givens is the president-elect of the Association for Humanistic Counseling. Joel is an Assistant Professor of Counselor Education at Adams State University. Joel’s research is focused on the integration of philosophy with counseling, counselor education, and supervision. Joel has published on values in counseling, deconstruction, phenomenology, and desire. Joel has been a licensed professional counselor in Colorado for twelve years and has worked in crisis mental health, clinical supervision, private practice, and residential treatment.   Music By The Passion HiFi www.thepassionhifi.com
