Abstract

Gatekeeping roles and responsibilities are one of the most challenging obligations for supervisors and educators. Problems of professional competence (PPC) are often related to or caused by a lack of multicultural competence, and social justice advocacy. They may be impacted by counselors'-in-training (CIT) history of trauma. In this chapter, the authors provide a rationale and guidance in incorporating social justice and multicultural competencies (SJMCC) and trauma-informed care (TIC) principles in the gatekeeping process. The concepts will then be applied to two cases, one focused on a doctoral student and one on a master level student exhibiting PPC. Through case examples, readers will learn ways in which they may improve their gatekeeping and supervision processes.
