Conversation 20 - Intentionality as Advocacy

July 09, 2024 • Ohio Counseling Association • Season 2 • Episode 20

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Sean Gorby, LPCC, current chairperson for OCA’s Government Relations Committee, about how the counseling profession intersects with the realm of advocacy. During our conversation we were able to ask about the success and happenings in our most recent Legislative Advocacy Day as well as how his experiences as a clinician, chairperson, legislative advocate, and father/parent all intersect into his professional life.
