Abstract

Black women are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) industries and are presented with unique career and mental health experiences as a result. This study used social cognitive career theory and thematic analysis to explore the career and mental health experiences of (N = 11) Black women in STEM. The findings include four themes: (1) the influence of a STEM career on mental health; (2) the STEM career journey; (3) self-efficacy and self-motivation to succeed; and (4) hopes for Black girls and women in STEM. Implications for counselors who work with Black women in STEM are discussed.
