Abstract

ABSTRACT The Person-of-the-Therapist Training (POTT) model has been developing and evolving since the late seventies. The current study explored the relationship between the personal self-of-the-therapist and the professional self-of-the-therapist within the POTT. A directed content analysis of the 18 trainees’ final reflection papers at the end of a 9-month POTT was conducted. Findings suggest that even though the training’s goal is improving trainees’ ability to use their selves in therapy, changes in the therapist’s self appear to expand to other areas in the therapist’s life. Thus, the road to becoming a more effective therapist goes through personal changes, specifically self-awareness and the acceptance of one’s own struggles and imperfections. Implications for training and future research are discussed.
超越二元性:治疗师培训中治疗师的个人自我和职业自我之间的关系
治疗师培训(POTT)模式自70年代末以来一直在发展和演变。本研究探讨了POTT中治疗师的个人自我和治疗师的职业自我之间的关系。在为期9个月的POTT结束时,对18名学员的最终反思文件进行了直接内容分析。研究结果表明,尽管培训的目标是提高受训者在治疗中使用自我的能力,但治疗师自我的变化似乎扩展到了治疗师生活的其他领域。因此,成为一名更有效的治疗师的道路需要经历个人的改变,特别是自我意识和接受自己的挣扎和不完美。讨论了对培训和未来研究的影响。
