Dianna Ducote-Sabey has been selected to join the team of psychologists and counselors at Counseling and Psychological Services: A Multicultural Center, at the University of baby直播app at Boulder.

The appointment will be considered for approval at the Dec. 9 Board of Regents meeting in Boulder. Ducote-Sabey is scheduled to start Jan. 10.

"We are very pleased to have Dianna as a staff psychologist working with CU-Boulder students, staff and baby直播app," said Eldridge Greer, director of the center.

"She brings traditional counseling center skills to our center, including interpretation of the Myers-Briggs and other interest inventories, as well as specific outreach experience to campus Native American communities."

Ducote-Sabey, a member of the Chickasaw tribe of Oklahoma, earned her doctoral degree in counseling psychology from Oklahoma State University. Her graduate and training experience includes work in several different university counseling centers, community mental health centers and an inpatient adolescent setting.

In addition to providing individual and group counseling, crisis intervention and emergency services, Ducote-Sabey teaches an undergraduate course on career decision-making and a graduate course on Native American mental health. She also provides outreach to Native American communities.

"I have a strong commitment of striving to enhance the personal and professional goals of diverse client populations," Ducote-Sabey said.

"Being Native American has given me the awareness of the kinds of issues that people of color and other diverse groups of students experience on campus. This exposure has given me the ability to gain expertise in the areas of multicultural and cross-cultural counseling and sensitized me to issues of diversity on campus," she said.

Ducote-Sabey also is an active facilitator and presenter and is a member of several professional associations.

Counseling and psychological services are free, confidential and available to all CU-Boulder students, staff and baby直播app. Parents also are welcome to call for consultations.
