The Person and the Professional in Counseling and Therapy 

Dr. Carlos Zalaquett interviews Dr. Patricia Arredondo.

Welcome to "The Person and the Professional in Counseling and Therapy" interviews. This is an ongoing project developed at Microtraining to document the personal journeys of leading figures in the field of counseling and psychology.

Each one of the interviews is written in the interviewee’s own words. The interviewees, which include professionals such as Patricia Arredondo, Janet Helms, Paul Pedersen, Michael D’Andrea, and George Albee, shared with us their personal stories, and their views of the present and future of our field.

Microtraining truly appreciates the interviewees’ generosity with their time and knowledge. Their expertise extends from prevention to intervention, from counseling to supervision, and from multiculturalism to social justice. Future interviews will continue to expand on the scope of this project.

Personally, I enjoyed the opportunity to get up close and personal with those who have had and will continue to shape the future of our field. I learned from each one of them and I hope you will too...
