Abstract

The collaborative model of counseling supervision, involving multiple stakeholders such as supervisors, peers, and novice counselors, offers a novel approach to enhancing the professional development and mental well-being of new counselors. This study explores the impact of this model on novice counselors' mental health and professional growth. Through a qualitative methodology, data were gathered from in-depth interviews and focus groups with participants engaged in collaborative supervision. The results reveal that the collaborative approach fosters a supportive environment, reduces feelings of isolation, and enhances the sense of professional identity among novice counselors. Additionally, this model promotes shared learning and reflection, contributing to improved counseling skills and professional confidence. The study provides valuable insights into the benefits of collaborative supervision and suggests practical implications for its implementation in counselor training programs to support the holistic development of future counseling professionals.
