Abstract

ABSTRACTThe focus of this study was to determine when and if female counselors-in-training (CITs) will self-advocate (i. e., avoid non-disclosure) when they experience an inappropriate sexual behavior from clients during their field experience training. Quantitative methods were used to gauge CIT sensitivity to and awareness of ICSBs, as well as to calculate frequencies of occurrences. Thematic Analysis was used to better understand descriptions of participants’ experience. Results indicated awareness of ICSBs with limited disclosure and perceived support in supervision, while three response themes emerged, including participants’ internalizing, externalizing, and engaging ICSBs.
