| Fellowship Nominations |
Each year, Division 17 (the Society of Counseling Psychology) is given the opportunity to recognize members of the Division who have had significant impact on the specialty of Counseling Psychology. The impact pertains to the areas of science, teaching and training, service delivery, administration, policy development, and/or advocacy.
Fellowship is an honor bestowed upon members who have made “unusual and outstanding contributions or performance in the field of psychology.” Their contributions are viewed as having enriched or advanced Counseling Psychology well beyond the level that normally would be expected of a professional psychologist. Fellows are selected by peers on the basis of evidence of sustained superior performance that is recognizable at a national (rather than local or regional) level. Nominees must meet both APA and Division 17 requirements to be considered for Fellow status.
The APA requirements for Fellow Status are as follows:
- Receipt of a doctoral degree based in part on a psychological dissertation, or from a program primarily psychological in nature, and conferred by a graduate school of recognized standing;
- Prior membership as an APA member for at least one year and membership in the Division through which the nominations is made;
- Active engagement at the time of nomination in the advancement of psychology in any of its aspects; and
- Five years of acceptable professional experience subsequent to the granting of the doctoral degree;
Additional requirements:
- At least three years post-graduate professional experience in counseling psychology;
- Membership in the Division for at least one year;
- Current engagement in education and training, practice, or research in counseling psychology; and
- Significant and distinctive contributions to Counseling Psychology in one or more of the following areas: Scientific Achievement, Professional Practice, Leadership and Administration, Teaching and Training, and/or Recognition of Excellence.
New Fellows must submit:
- A Uniform Fellows Application;
- Self-statement detailing contributions, evidence of contributions, and impact on Counseling Psychology;
- Current vita with “R” by listings of publications in refereed journals; and
- Three endorsements from APA Fellows, including the Fellow Status Evaluation Form and Fellow Status Evaluation Worksheet;
For Current Fellows of other APA Divisions, only the following is required:
- A current vita;
- A self-statement detailing contributions, evidence of contributions, and impact on Counseling Psychology; and
- A letter of endorsement from a SCP Fellow
Any member or Fellow of Division 17 may make a nomination. Self-nominations also are invited. Nominations should be sent via regular mail or e-mail to the Chair of the Fellows Committee:
