Abstract

The mediational role of counsellor burnout and dispositional hope between mindful awareness and counsellor self-efficacy has been examined among 243 professional school counsellors from 72 cities out of 81 in Turkey. With structural equation modelling and a bootstrap method, the results have revealed that counsellor burnout and dispositional hope fully mediated the relationship between mindful awareness and counsellor self-efficacy. Limitations, directions for future research, and practical implications for the counselling field are also discussed.
