Education
In this episode, I spoke with Dr. Katy Leigh-Oshroosh, an experienced school counselor and counselor educator currently serving as an Assistant Professor at San Diego State University. Dr. Leigh-Oshroosh shared the importance of respecting the experiences of Indigenous populations, honoring their values when providing career counseling, self-examination as a career development professional, providing space for storytelling, and strategies for working with Indigenous clients.
