Abstract

Purpose This research aimed to explore individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) experiences of the therapeutic relationship. Design/methodology/approach Six individuals with ID were recruited who were currently having 1:1 therapy. Semi-structured interviews focused on their experiences of the therapeutic relationship. Findings Using interpretative phenomenological analysis, six personal experiential themes were identified. These were labelled as a person-centred experience, the importance of adaptions, “I feel like I know you”, a secure base is offered, change does occur and an overlap of subjective experience. The results indicate that participants’ accounts of their experiences indicated that the relationship was important to them. This research also demonstrated that the benefits and value of involving individuals with ID in qualitative research. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, exploring the therapeutic relationship from the perspective of individuals with ID has not been previously explored in the literature. This research highlights considerations for therapists working with this population to help them facilitate positive therapeutic outcomes.

智障患者治疗关系的经验

目的本研究旨在探讨智力障碍(ID)个体的治疗关系体验。设计/方法/方法招募6名ID患者，目前正在接受1:1的治疗。半结构化访谈的重点是他们对治疗关系的体验。使用解释性现象学分析，确定了六个个人体验主题。这些被标记为以人为中心的体验，适应的重要性，“我觉得我认识你”，提供了一个安全的基础，确实发生了变化，以及主观体验的重叠。结果表明，参与者对自己经历的描述表明，这种关系对他们很重要。本研究还证明了将ID患者纳入定性研究的好处和价值。原创性/价值据作者所知，从本我个体的角度探索治疗关系在以前的文献中还没有被探索过。这项研究强调了治疗师与这一人群一起工作的考虑，以帮助他们促进积极的治疗结果。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
