Professional School Counselors’ Levels of Self-Perceived Competence Working with Trans* Students in K-12 Public Schools

Abstract Details

2020, Doctor of Philosophy, University of Toledo, Counselor Education.
Many students who identify as trans* experience discrimination, harassment, and marginalization in their homes, communities, and schools. Professional School Counselors are positioned as pillars of support and advocacy for trans* and gender-expansive youth as dictated by professional standards, however, literature reflects a lack of confidence and competence in working with trans* youth and their families. There is a dearth of professional counseling literature that addresses factors leading to increased school counselor competence with trans* students. The current study proposes to expand this research, through a cross-sectional survey design, surveying professional school counselors in the United States working with students in the K-12 public school system. This study has implications for professional school counselors, CITs, and counselor education programs.
