Abstract

Mentorship has been widely lauded as meaningful for trainees in their professional development. To better understand the gaps in the scholarship of mentorship in counselor education, a scoping review was conducted to examine peer-reviewed research from 2005-2020. Results found eligible articles (n = 18) met the eligibility criteria. Implications from this study include improving conceptual rigor of mentorship outcomes in counselor education research, further investigating how underrepresented identities may benefit from mentorship, and tailoring mentorship interventions for the learning context and graduate level for counselor education students.

Public Significance Statement

This scoping review advances the NASEM outcomes as a framework to organize the existing body of research on mentoring within graduate counselor education. The authors aim to highlight particular trends and gaps within the existing literature on mentorship in counselor education.
