Dorothy Booz Black Award for Outstanding Research in Counseling Health Psychology

The Dorothy Booz Black Award is given to encourage and reward outstanding research and practice in Counseling Health Psychology. The monetary prize associated with the award is generously donated by Consulting Psychologists Press, Inc. The recipient of the award will be announced at the annual convention during the Division 17 Business meeting.

This award honors the significant role played by Dorothy Booz in the formative, developmental and continuing success of Consulting Psychologists Press/Davies Black Publishing. Her long-standing advocacy of the need to improve student and employee health and well being in work organizations has been noteworthy. In collaboration with John D. Black, she worked diligently and compassionately to promote and celebrate diversity among colleagues, marked by a special kind of gentle caring and respect for persons at all levels of the organization. Her contributions as a member of the Board of Directors of CPP/Davies Black focused on ways the organization could better serve the community. She was interested in how Counseling Psychologists and other professionals could work to enhance health and diminish disease risks among people using counseling approaches.
