New professionals can benefit from support and mentoring as they transition into their jobs, and research suggests that school counselors often do not receive formal mentoring from other school counselors. In this qualitative study, seven first-year school counselors were asked to keep journals during their first year and to reflect on their experiences, challenges, and supports. Results suggested that school counselors experience support and mentoring in numerous ways even in the absence of formal mentoring programs. Recommendations for establishing informal support networks are provided.
