Abstract

Much of the multicultural counseling literature focuses on how White or U.S.-born therapists can work effectively with clients of color. However, with the increasing number of racial minority and international therapists and trainees, there is a need to expand the multicultural counseling literature to acknowledge and center the experiences of therapists and trainees of color, particularly the experiences of Asian international therapists. Specifically, a greater understanding and guidelines are needed regarding how Asian international therapists handle clients' xenophobia, racism, and microaggressions in therapy. This qualitative study interviewed 11 licensed practicing Asian international psychotherapists within the United States about their experiences of client-initiated microaggressions in therapy. Consensual qualitative research was used to analyze interview data. Results indicated four domains pertaining to Asian international psychotherapists' experiences in therapy: xenophobia, microaggression, impact, and strategy. Participants reported complex negative impacts of xenophobia and microaggressions on their well-being as well as the therapeutic relationship and treatment outcomes. Additionally, participants identified the difficulty and complexity of addressing client-initiated microaggressions in session. Implications for training and practice as well as suggestions for future research are provided. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).

亚洲国际心理治疗师在治疗过程中对客户微侵犯的体验。
大部分多元文化心理咨询文献关注的是白人或美国出生的治疗师如何有效地与有色人种客户合作。然而,随着少数种族和国际治疗师及受训人员的数量不断增加,有必要扩大多元文化咨询文献的范围,以承认有色人种治疗师和受训人员的经验,尤其是亚裔国际治疗师的经验,并将其放在中心位置。具体来说,我们需要更深入地了解亚裔国际治疗师在治疗中如何处理客户的仇外心理、种族主义和微言微语,并就此制定指导方针。本定性研究采访了美国 11 位有执业资格的亚裔国际心理治疗师,了解他们在治疗过程中遇到由客户引发的微言攻击的经历。本研究采用了双方同意的定性研究方法来分析访谈数据。结果显示,亚裔国际心理治疗师在治疗中的经历涉及四个领域:仇外心理、微侵害、影响和策略。参与者报告了仇外心理和微侵害对他们的幸福感、治疗关系和治疗结果造成的复杂的负面影响。此外,参与者还指出了在治疗过程中解决由客户引发的微侵害问题的难度和复杂性。本文还提供了对培训和实践的启示以及对未来研究的建议。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA,保留所有权利)。
