The role of a special educator is one of many different hats, including teacher, interventionist, comforter, parent, counselor, therapist, and administrator. These varying roles, particularly when working with students with emotional behavioral disorders, create one of the most emotionally taxing and challenging jobs in public education, which in turn leads to increased educator burnout and attrition. However, this does not need to be the fate of special educators. The purpose of this article is to (a) review one current support system widely implemented in the field for teachers of children with emotional behavioral disorders, (b) discuss the benefits of mentorship in the teaching workforce, (c) identify some of the barriers to mentorship, and (d) identify areas of reform for more effective mentorship practices.

特殊教育者的角色是许多不同角色之一，包括教师、干预者、安慰者、家长、辅导员、治疗师和管理员。这些不同的角色，特别是在与患有情绪行为障碍的学生一起工作时，创造了公共教育中情感负担最重、最具挑战性的工作之一，这反过来又导致教育工作者的倦怠和流失加剧。然而，这并不一定是特殊教育工作者的命运。本文的目的是 (a) 回顾目前在该领域广泛实施的一种针对情绪行为障碍儿童教师的支持系统，(b) 讨论教师队伍中辅导的好处，(c) 找出一些障碍指导，(d) 确定改革领域，以实现更有效的指导实践。
