Their July article examines the counseling relationship and outcomes with cisgender counselors and transgender clients. <\/p>\n<p>Ausloos has worked as an instructor for both graduate and undergraduate courses, including clinical and school internships, individual and group assessment, career counseling and development, substance abuse treatment techniques, and foundations of human mental health. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe UToledo doctoral program in counselor education is a rigorous program that allows students to increase competency in teaching, research, counseling, supervision, leadership and advocacy \u2014 which is why I love it,\u201d Ausloos said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UToledo doctoral candidate Clark D.
