The authors examined the association between multicultural counseling competence (MCC) and mindfulness. Previous authors have maintained a conceptual link between MCC and mindfulness; however, this is the first empirical analysis of the relationship between MCC and mindfulness. Results revealed that, after race/ethnicity, multicultural course completion, and empathy were controlled, components of mindfulness were correlated with multicultural awareness and multicultural knowledge. These results have implications for counselor education, counseling practice, and future research.

This correlational study was conducted with 403 undergraduate college students from 2 universities. The authors used path analysis and bootstrap regression to analyze the relationships between variables. Locus of control and family connectedness related to current nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) engagement. However, when entered into the same regression, the variables current NSSI engagement and current NSSI number of methods used mediated all other relationships with suicidal ideation. Implications to current theories and clinical practice are provided.

Due to the increasing presence of clients who speak a language other than English, educators and supervisors will need to address bilingual training issues in mental health service provision. Supervision that utilizes the preferred language of the client is an effective way to support growth in bilingual trainees, but there is little scholarly literature describing best practices or approaches to this complex task. We describe our experiences with bilingual supervision in Spanish (from both trainee and supervisor points of view) and provide resources and suggestions to encourage other supervisory dyads to attempt bilingual service provision.
