Jeanne Slattery, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Clarion University, presented two half-day workshops at the annual meetings of Pennsylvania Psychological Association. The workshops were entitled, “Sexual Minorities, Religion and Spirituality: Ethical Strategies for Clinical Practice” and "Positive Multiculturalism as Aspirational Ethical Practice: Therapeutic Applications."
She presented each workshop with colleagues from across the state, focusing on the ways that considering and responding to multicultural issues is part of an ethical psychotherapy practice. Participants of each workshop earned three continuing education credits.
Slattery sits on Pennsylvania Psychological Association Board of Directors and serves as the public interest chair. She was recently appointed representative from the board of directors to PPA’s executive committee.
Slattery received her B.A. degree from Illinois State University and her M.A. and PhD. degrees from Miami University. She has been teaching at Clarion University since 1984.
