The purpose of this study was to describe the demographic identity of a national sample of professional school counselors who were members of the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), understand the manner in which they conceptualized their professional peer membership, and explore what sources they use to make professional and ethical decisions. Consistent with previous research, the majority of participants were white woman, across all four regions in the sample; however, when compared to previous studies, there were a slightly higher percentage of non-white school counselors. Results suggest that there is still a significant gap between the demographics of school counselors and the students they serve. The results of this study indicate that professional school counselors hold a wide range of opinions concerning who they view are their professional peers. There were also significant differences on what resources participants' used to make professional and ethical decisions. Implications and future directions for research are discussed.

“…One key to a change in counselors becoming more involved and energetic reformers is a change in counselor education programming, that is, helping counselors examine their personal beliefs about reform, redefining the counselor's role in the learning community, teaching advocacy skills directed for change within a school system, and, through counselors in the field, stepping up to passionate counselor leadership (Dollarhide et al, 2008). In view of a counselor's ability to ascertain and discuss the interpersonal attributes needed in educational reform such as emotional development, it is imperative that the counselor become involved with school reform on both the national level but maybe even more importantly on the school level.…”

“…Through this emotional resonance, a leader's passion spreads and ignites others' passions and callings (Bell, 1997). School counselors are called on to be leaders in their schools and should understand their place in the school context (Dollarhide, Gibson, & Saginak, 2008). Counselors who live with passion, defined as a fervent commitment to work for its own sake, are consistently happier than those with mere jobs or careers (Wrzesniewski, 2001).…”

School counseling is a constantly evolving profession and in view of the growing demands and expectations of students, faculty, parents, the employment sector, and society in the twenty-first century, one that is in need of revision. In recent years the direction of counseling has turned to more accountability and technology, and trending away from some of the vital attributes of the heart, including passion (Palmer, 1998).Many lead counselors, staff development professionals, and administrators find themselves inadequately equipped to engage in and facilitate successful counselor professional development in these areas; school counselors' work with students, staff, and parents suffer. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the many ways exemplary school counselors have developed and maintained passion over the span of their professional careers. Using a qualitative approach with semi-structured interviews, this study elucidated the key elements in exemplary counselors' development of passion. Each of nine public school counselors from across Colorado schools participated in a 60to 90 minute interview in their office and a follow-up email interview. Data analysis included constant comparative analysis with open and axial coding, which produced four emergent themes. Spirituality, humbleness, being out of the office, and a counselor's family, each with supportive sub-themes, emerged from the interviews and are discussed.iv Passionate counselors exhibited deep and textured features of an ongoing spiritual life that resulted in the development of useful attributes and strategies, which in turn resulted in a variety of rewards and recognitions. These attributes, strategies, and rewards created a synergetic relationship. Personal reflections, recommendations, limitations of the study, and implications for possible future research are included.
