Using the Genogram With an Attitude in Counselor Education and
Supervision

NARACES PRE-CONFERENCE INSTITUTE
Friday, October 5, 2001, 9 AM-12 noon
University of Massachusetts Conference Center
Amherst, Massachusetts

This interactive institute will demonstrate the use of the “genogram with an attitude”, developed by Dr. Julia Halevy in collaboration with Dr.Dottie Morris. Drs. Halevy and Morris will describe a method of
assisting counselor educators, students, and supervisees in understanding their attitudes toward race, gender, ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, age, physical ability, and appearance. They have utilized this approach in
classroom and consultation settings, and presented at national diversity conferences.

Participants will apply the method to their own family histories by exploring the variety of attitudes that have been passed down to them. The method allows participants to heighten their awareness of these
attitudes in their own lives and come to a deeper understanding of the process by which bias may be passed down from one generation to the next. The knowledge and insight gathered and discussed during the workshop is intended to be useful in informing participants’ work with counseling students and supervisees. Application to the classroom setting will be discussed.

Julia Halevy, Dott. Ped., is Chairperson of the Department of Applied Psychology at Antioch New England Graduate School. She received her doctorate from the University of Florence (Italy) in 1978 and did advanced training in family and cognitive/ behavioral therapies. She is licensed both as a Psychologist and as a Marriage and Family Therapist in Massachusetts, and is a Clinical Member and Approved Supervisor of the
American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. She has a private clinical practice and consults in intervention to organizations and universities through her consulting practice, Dialogues in Diversity.
She founded Antioch New England Graduate School’s Diversity Committee and is coordinator of Policies and Procedures Involving Complaints of Sexual Harassment and Assault. She is currently conducting a qualitative research study on the intergenerational effects of trauma on African American descendants of slaves, Native Americans. and American descendants of the Nazi Holocaust. Dottie R. Morris, Ph.D., is Director of Student Affairs for Counseling Psychology at Antioch New England Graduate School. She received her doctorate in clinical psychology from Washington State University. She has had the opportunity to work with diverse populations in a variety of therapy settings. Over the past decade, she has presented workshops and talks on cross-cultural psychology and diversity issues in general. Her desire is to continue developing her skills, talents, and knowledge in order to work with others to bridge the gaps between people of diverse backgrounds. The fee for this pre-conference institute will be $20. It will run given an enrollment of at least 10 participants. NBCC CEU’s will be available.
