Dr. Brubaker’s clinical and research interests have focused on underserved and socially marginalized populations including the homeless, those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer + (LGBTQ+), and ethnic minorities.  Taking a combined strengths and social justice perspective, he has sought to address clinical and social barriers to substance abuse and mental health services for these populations.

He is also the senior author of the book, Advancing your career: Getting and making the most of your doctorate. Dr. Brubaker has been awarded the Golden Apple Award for Excellence in Teaching for four years by the College of Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services and was recognized by Cincy Magazine as an Outstanding Educator in 2014. In 2020, he was inducted into the UC Academy of Fellows for Teaching and Learning.

Doctor of Philosophy: University of Florida 2009 (Mental Health Counseling)

Master of Science: Georgia State University 2006 (Professional Counseling)

Master of Divinity: Emory University 1998

Bachelor of Science: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill 1989 (Business Administration)

Building on clinical and personal experiences, my research interests have focused on serving socially oppressed populations, specifically 1) women, men, and children who have become homeless; 2) lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals; and 3) ethnic minorities.  My multicultural research agenda includes working in the areas of addictions, group work, indigenous healing practices, and spirituality.  Theoretically, I have adopted an Emancipatory Communitarianism approach (Prilleltensky, 1997) which supports greater critical consciousness, mutual responsibility, and a strengths-based orientation while serving individuals and whole communities.  With this perspective, my research agenda has been to help communities realize their full potential as they address the social injustices that are perpetuated within.
