The role of adverse childhood experiences in counselor trainee’s burnout and wellness and the moderating role of social support

Abstract
We examined the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on counselors-in-trainings’ (CIT; N = 139) perceived wellness and burnout and the mitigating role of social support. Participants indicated high exposure to ACEs, high levels of burnout, and low levels of wellness. Implications for counseling training programs are discussed.
