The conceptual framework of the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies includes a quadrant to represent a privileged client working with a marginalized counselor (Ratts et al., 2016). Given this, the presenters will facilitate a discussion around how supervisors can supervise counselors-in-training who may encounter microaggressions from clients and how to help them respond in a way that enhances the counseling relationship.
