ABSTRACT
This phenomenological study explored the perspectives and experiences of 12 counseling leaders grounding their leadership within professional counselor identity. The results of this study yielded five main themes (i.e., person as leader, culture, privilege and responsibility, counseling leadership, advocacy and impact), each with three subthemes. Implications for counseling leadership, leadership training, multicultural leadership, and research are discussed.
