Abstract	Counselling Faculty and other post-secondary mental health professionals face challenges and issues at work that often differ from those of other faculty and academic staff. In the face of increasing demands for mental health services on post-secondary campuses, as well as the cross-sector impact of COVID-19 on working conditions, the 2021 CAUT Post-Secondary Counselling Survey aimed to identify key issues of concern for Faculty Counsellors and other postsecondary mental health professionals. The survey received 103 responses from counsellors at 52 different universities and colleges across nine provinces. Among the key findings are: (1) Half of respondents were members of their institution's academic staff association, 33% were members of another union and 14% were not unionized; (2) Ninety per cent of respondents were employed full-time and 10% part-time; (3) Counselling Faculty tended to have access to some faculty privileges but not others; (4) The most common reasons given for increased workloads were an increased demand for services, (76%), additional administrative tasks (67%) and the addition of new technology (57%); and (5) Prior to COVID-19, the most common way of providing counselling services (53%) was in-person only. At the time of the survey, it was video or telephone only (57%). (ERIC).
