Counseling Psychology and Health Psychology: Is This a Relationship Whose Time Has Come?

Tucker, Carolyn M.

Counseling Psychologist, v19 n3 p387-91 Jul 1991

Responds to previous articles by Alcorn, Altmaier, and Harris regarding counseling psychologists' involvement in health care. Maintains that present knowledge within counseling psychology is less applicable to health-related research, full participation of counseling psychologists in research and theory development in health field without subspecialty training is unrealistic, and proactive stance in establishing role within health profession is important.
