A Qualitative Investigation of the Experiences of Entry-Level Professional Counselors Working in Community Mental Health Settings and Potential Impacts to Wellness BLAKE, SUSAN D., Ph.D. Ready Or Not: A Qualitative Investigation of the Experiences of Entry-Level Professional Counselors Working in Community Mental Health Settings and Potential Impacts to Wellness. (2015) Directed by Dr. Todd F. Lewis and Dr. Keith Mobley. 403 pp. It is well known that professional counselors may experience physical and emotional symptoms that may ultimately affect their quality of work (Figley, 1995; Figley, 2002; Maslach, 2003). Furthermore, deficits in wellness of counselors can have significant consequences in the ethical care of clients (ACA, 2005; 2014; Kocet, 2006; Neumann & Gamble, 1995; Pearlman & Saakvitne, 1995). Specifically, entry-level professional counselors in community mental health (CMH) settings may be at a higher risk of experiencing these deficits to wellness compared to their more experienced counterparts (Farber, 1985; Lawson & Myers, 2011; Lent & Schwartz, 2012; Pearlman & MacIan, 1995; Sprang, Clark & Whitt-Woosley, 2007). In addition, entry-level counselors may not have the skills or support to maintain their wellness and thus protect them from impairment stemming from organizational variables within the CMH setting (Lawson, 2007; Farber, 1985; Pearlman & MacIan, 1995; Sprang et al., 2007). As such, the challenging clientele, organizational factors, and supervision experiences in CMH settings may have unique influences on entry-level professional counselors’ experiences with wellness. Unfortunately, a common trend in CMH agencies is that the least experienced counselors work with the most severe of client needs (Pearlman & MacIan, 1995; Wachter Morris & Barrio Minton, 2012). Researchers have begun to examine elements of wellness among counseling students (Lambie, Smith, & Ieva, 2009; Myers, Mobley & Booth, 2003; Perepiczka & Balkin, 2010; Roach & Young, 2007), counselor educators (Wester, Trepal, & Myers, 2009) and professional counselors (Lawson, 2007; Lawson & Myers, 2011; Lent & Schwartz, 2012; Mobley, 2004; Randolph, 2010). Surprisingly, however, greater emphasis on wellness and prevention of impairment as well as calls in the literature for managing impairment factors within the field of counseling (Lawson & Venart, 2005; Sheffield, 1998; Witmer & Young, 1996) has not spurred empirical investigation related to the experiences of entry-level professional counselors. Furthermore, the work environment of entry-level professional counselors, and how this impacts their experiences of wellness, has been largely neglected (Borders & Hamilton Usher, 1992; Fall & Sutton, 2003; Freadling & Foss-Kelly, 2014). As such, continuing to overlook the needs of entry-level professional counselors poses not only a risk to counselor wellness but also to client welfare (Lawson & Venart, 2005). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the experiences of entry- level professional counselors working within CMH agencies and how these experiences impact their wellness. In particular, the experiences of entry-level professional counselors were explored within the context of the clientele they typically serve, the organizational factors they face on a daily basis, and the supervision they receive as entry-level counselors. Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) was utilized to analyze the interviews of 11 participants. Participants in this study identified multiple factors that impacted their experiences of working in the CMH setting. The research team reviewed data presented by participants and developed eight domains. These domains included categories that were labeled general, typical, and variant. The domains were developed based on literature review and participant responses. These included: (a) job title or role, (b) ProQOL experience, (c) career choice, (d) organizational factors, (e) client factors, (f) self-care/ wellness, and (g) supervision. Of the 42 categories, 3 were labeled general, 20 were labeled typical, and 19 were labeled variant.

First, I would like to thank my committee for the long-term support that you offered. Dr. Todd Lewis, you have been there through all the changes and challenges. I appreciate your support and very calming energy. Dr. Keith Mobley, you have such a mentor’s spirit and approach. I cannot thank you enough for all your encouragement.

To my research team: Dr. Amber Pope and Dr. Denisha Champion, I couldn’t have done this without you both. Your words of encouragement went further than you know.

I appreciate you all listening to my worries and victories along this journey. iii To the Tenacious Ten, we met when life was uncertain for me in many ways. You each had a part in making me the woman I am today. My family and friends, you had no idea what I was doing all those long nights and weekends when I had to turn down invitations. You loved and supported me in spite of it all. To Sonya, my love, my partner, you have only known me with this present in my life. You loved me anyway. You consistently make me a better and kinder soul in this world. You are my soft place to land. I love you with all my heart and I am so excited to see what is in store for our lives together. I am grateful. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF TABLES ...............................................................................................................x CHAPTER I.

  • Memoirs of Ruby Partin Long (A Pelham Valley Story)
    Memoirs of Ruby Partin Long (A Pelham Valley Story) Submitted by Jackie Layne Partin (Ruby Anna Mae Partin Long, born 1916-died 2003, was a daughter of William Harrison “Willie” and Octavia “Tavy” Goodman Partin. She was a sister to Grady Edward Partin, Lottie Partin Bell, Douglas Partin and Roy Partin. I found this little booklet containing her memoirs in one of my notebooks, and upon rereading it, I was assured that there was material in it for sharing. With corrections for clarity, italics to furnish names, added photos for interest and permission from her family, I present the memoirs as she wrote them. Jackie) Ruby Anna Mae Partin Long William Harrison “Willie” Partin and his new bride Octavia “Tavy” Goodman Partin I was born in the old Bell House in Bells Cove, Tennessee, where my mother always said the wind would whistle through the cracks. Our heat was a fireplace where you burned on one side and froze on the other. I was playing out in the yard as a small toddler, and Mama found me turning blue, so she grabbed me up and ran her finger down my throat and dislodged a cocklebur. I was bad about putting things into my mouth. My neighbor told me that she found me with pieces of pretty glass trying to chew it. They wiped my mouth out, and I was none the worse for it. While I was rather young, we moved to Alto where my brother Grady and sister Lottie started to school. I was about four at the time, and I begged to go with them saying, “I am plenty big enough to go to school.” When I was five, they let me start to school, and I don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed anything as much all through life as going to school and learning new things, especially arithmetic.

  • Willie Nelson
    BIOGRAPHY: WILLIE NELSON OUTLAW LEGEND Willie Nelson’s influence has stretched into almost every corner of country music since the 1960s, but his role in the Outlaw movement has particular significance. During the mid-1970s, Nelson, along with Waylon Jennings, led the way in bringing the raw, rootsy, and renegade sound to country. “He wasn’t merely a singer with a big song — there were plenty of those,” his biographer Graeme Thomson wrote about Nelson’s Outlaw era. “He was at the head of a movement, something completely new and odd this rebellious style, Nelson took on a countercultural and intriguing . .” appearance, wearing a beard, tying a bandanna around his head, and letting his hair grow long and eventually Born into the Great Depression on April 30, 1933, in turn into his trademark pigtails. tiny Abbott, Texas, Nelson was virtually abandoned as a baby by his parents and raised by his paternal His first #1 song, in 1975, was an inspired and unlikely grandparents.

  • Willie Nelson: Songwriter out of Need
    Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum • Words & Music • Grades 3-6 Willie Nelson: Songwriter Out of Need Willie Nelson is one of country music’s trailblazing singers and musicians. When he was young, he wanted so badly to make his career in music that he was willing to do anything. He first enjoyed success as a songwriter, and for a while he was among the most successful in Nashville. From the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s, Nelson wrote more than two thousand songs. Among them were songs that would become timeless classics, including “Crazy,” “Night Life,” and “Funny How Time Slips Away.” Nelson became a star performer himself in the 1970s, and he did not write as much. “I stopped churning them out because I no longer felt the need to keep writing constantly,” he said. “There is nothing that quite compares with being broke and desperate, to make a real writer keep working.” Nelson knew poverty from his earliest days. Born during He wrote hit after hit for other artists, but Nelson’s bluesy the Great Depression, on April 30, 1933, in tiny Abbott, singing was different from pop-country styles of the 1960s.

Instead, musical tastes changed, and he was among a group of artists called “Outlaws,” who “Melodies are the easiest part for me,” Nelson said, attracted a national following with a raw country style.

    Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum • Words & Music • Grades 7-12 Willie Nelson: Songwriter by Necessity Now considered one of country music’s trailblazing artists, Willie Nelson started out with ambitions to make a career in music any way he could. Early on, that meant earning most of his living as a songwriter, and for a time he was among Nashville’s most successful. From the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s, Nelson estimates that he wrote more than two thousand songs, among them “Crazy,” “Night Life,” and “Funny How Time Slips Away,” which would become timeless classics, recorded by dozens of artists and still performed widely today.
