Carceral practices involve coercive or punitive actions to control BIPOC and low-income communities, contributing to lower mental health service utilization among racial minorities, especially those with prior carceral involvement. Therapists in training, believing they are fulfilling ethical and legal duties, may overreport, negatively impacting families of color. From 2015 to 2018, only 9 in 1000 maltreatment cases were confirmed, reflecting the carceral conditioning of therapists. This paper advocates for an anticarceral praxis and proposes an ethical family centered model. It encourages therapists to critically reflect on their roles within carceral paradigms, explore alternative supportive methods for working with BIPOC clients, and review transformative justice, abolitionist approaches, and community-centered alternatives to traditional MR.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":16320,"journal":{"name":"Journal of marital and family therapy","volume":"51 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143888963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Eleven studies met eligibility criteria and were critically appraised and thematically synthesized. Four themes resulted: therapist qualities contributing to the therapeutic alliance, practitioners' use of therapeutic techniques, intervention delivery, and family engagement with the process. Helpful factors included therapist warmth, kindness, and genuine care; therapist connecting with family in a sensitive, respectful, and nonjudgmental manner; effective use of therapeutic techniques that facilitated self-reflection, emotional expression, communication, and perspective-taking; therapy sessions conducted collaboratively with active family participation; focusing on family strengths and resources; and tailoring format to family needs. Unhelpful factors included participants sharing before ready, therapist siding with a family member, therapy process not matching family needs, and insufficient progress early on. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.","PeriodicalId":16320,"journal":{"name":"Journal of marital and family therapy","volume":"51 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jmft.70024","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143888964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is limited work to date characterizing the prevalence and determinants of behavioral health concerns among these caregivers. The present study sought to examine among 100 caregivers of youth with juvenile legal system involvement: (a) rates of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and cannabis and alcohol use; (b) frequency of exposure to traumatic events and discrimination; and (c) the association between experiences of traumatic events and discrimination and behavioral health concerns. The results indicated a variety of behavioral health concerns were experienced by caregivers, with an alarming number of caregivers having been exposed to traumatic events and discrimination. Discrimination was most frequently associated with mental health concerns. Our findings indicated that family-based interventions targeting youth with juvenile legal system involvement should continue to focus on caregiver wellbeing and emphasize reducing the impact of experiences of discrimination.","PeriodicalId":16320,"journal":{"name":"Journal of marital and family therapy","volume":"51 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jmft.70023","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143884228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most have examined the benefits of intrapersonal or trait mindfulness, rather than directly investigating interpersonal mindfulness or considering polyvagal theory. Our main objective was to determine the variable importance of interpersonal mindfulness and psychological safety for relationship and sexual satisfaction using random forests and regression trees and to explore the importance of demographics, social and couple-related factors, and emotional wellbeing in this analysis. 356 adults in committed romantic relationships were recruited for a self-report survey. Results suggested that mindfulness in couple relationships, psychological safety, conflict strategies, and depression symptoms were of top importance for relationship and sexual satisfaction. Limitations and future directions involving dyadic data and physiological measures were discussed. The findings will inform the development of interpersonal mindfulness- and polyvagal-based interventions aimed at promoting safety and stability in relationships while enhancing personal wellbeing.","PeriodicalId":16320,"journal":{"name":"Journal of marital and family therapy","volume":"51 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jmft.70026","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143871459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mainstream treatments of anger often neglect its contextual factors, potentially invalidating the legitimate grievances of marginalized people. This paper challenges these views by examining existing literature, and rethinks the role of anger by placing it within the contexts of social power structures. It argues that anger-related processes can constitute affective injustice, further perpetuating systemic oppression and injustice. To advance sociocultural competency in treating anger among marginalized people, this paper offers practical guidance, such as the role of client autonomy in the anger treatment process and a systemic conceptualization of anger rooted in systems theory. It also recommends key directions for future research, such as the intersectionality of anger regulation among marginalized communities. Ultimately, the paper is not about introducing novel models or interventions for treating anger but rather seeks to shift the focus from merely approaching anger as a clinical problem to addressing its systemic roots, empowering clinicians to incorporate these factors into the treatment process.","PeriodicalId":16320,"journal":{"name":"Journal of marital and family therapy","volume":"51 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jmft.70018","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
