Counselor educators and supervisors carry out the responsibility of ensuring that counselors in training are competent and fit for practice. Burnout can occur when stressors in the workplace are not addressed. Engagement in the role of gatekeeper and perceptions of support can be factors that impact burnout in counselor educators. The exploration of variables that may relate to counselor educator burnout would benefit the counseling community including counselor educators, counseling students, counseling clients, and the community at large. There has been a paucity of research exploring the relationships among faculty members' perceptions of support, experiences of gatekeeping, and burnout in counselor educators and supervisors. This study examined relationships among faculty members' perceptions of support, experiences of gatekeeping, and burnout in counselor educators to determine whether faculty members' experiences of support and gatekeeping predicted counselor educator burnout. A correlational analysis explored the relationships among faculty members' perceptions of support, experiences of gatekeeping, and burnout in counselor educators, and a regression analysis explored whether faculty members' experiences of support and of gatekeeping predicted counselor educator burnout. The number of participants was 86. An alpha level of 0.05 was used for all statistical tests. Faculty members' perception of support and burnout were statistically significant and positively correlated with large effect size (r (84) = 0.63, p < 0.001) and experiences of gatekeeping and burnout were found to have a statistically significant and positively correlated relationship with a medium effect size (r (84) = 0.47, p < 0.001). A significant regression equation was found F (2, 85) =31.323. p < 0.001, with an R[superscript 2] of 0.43. Perceptions of support and experiences of gatekeeping were significant predictors of burnout. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
