Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder affecting 1-4% of people by age 80 (Black, 2011). However, the co-occurring psychological disorders of PD clients such as depression, anxiety and apathy are significantly underdiagnosed. Professional counselors are uniquely qualified to assist clients with these mental health complications of PD if they have access to the appropriate information. This program seeks first, to create awareness of the unique mental health needs of those who have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Secondly, to serve as a reminder that those who live with somatic disorders and physical disabilities are deserving of cross-cultural consideration and counselor sensitivity. Finally, to provide attendees with vital information that will enable them to provide competent and compassionate care for PD clients.
