Counselor educators-in-training often struggle with establishing a well defined professional identity as they are faced juggling their own inter- and intra-personal development with the many roles and responsibilities that make up being a counselor educator. The purpose of this roundtable is to explore the possibility of using sandtray to facilitate professional identity development with counselor educators-in-training. Through this discussion, participants will have the opportunity to create their own mini sandtrays, discuss their experiences, and explore methods in which it may be incorporated into their own programs. Attendees will also get exposure to the results from one study that used sandtray to facilitate professional identity development.
