摘要
2013年出版的DSM 5认为，自闭症患者比神经正常的同龄人更容易出现精神健康问题。先前的一项系统综述表明，自闭症青少年可能更容易受到心理健康状况不佳的影响（Casper等人，2021），特别是在大流行后（Samji等人，2022）。后续研究(Maddox et al. 2020；Lipinski等人（2022）表明，心理治疗师和咨询师对自闭症的看法可能成为获得治疗支持的障碍。这一领域的大多数研究都集中在广泛的年龄范围和指导治疗上，这并不能反映自闭症的频谱性质，也限制了所提供的支持类型。方法本研究旨在通过103名参与者的在线调查收集定量数据，调查咨询师和心理治疗师对自闭症青少年治疗工作的经验和看法。结果研究结果表明，治疗师的经验和对自闭症青少年的信心之间存在显著的关系。治疗师信心与治疗师能力显著相关，但这种关系的方向无法确定。此外，结果表明81%的参与者在获得资格认证期间没有接受过任何正式的自闭症培训，93%的人认为非指导性治疗对自闭症青少年有益。总的来说，这项研究强调了将自闭症培训纳入课程的迫切需要，这可能会增加新合格治疗师的信心和能力，并改善自闭症青少年获得心理健康服务的机会。讨论了这些发现的意义，以及进一步研究的局限性和计划。
Exploring the Experience and Perceptions of Psychotherapists and Counsellors Working With Autistic Adolescents: Paper One
Background
The publication of the DSM 5 in 2013 identified autistic individuals as more likely to experience mental health problems than their neurotypical peers. A prior systematic review suggested autistic adolescents may be more vulnerable to poor mental health (Casper et al. 2021), especially post-pandemic (Samji et al. 2022). Subsequent research (Maddox et al. 2020; Lipinski et al. 2022) has suggested that psychotherapist and counsellor perceptions of autism may act as barriers in accessing therapeutic support. Most of the research within this area is focused on broad age ranges and directive therapies, which does not reflect the spectrum nature of autism and limits the type of support offered.
Methods
This research aimed to investigate counsellor and psychotherapist experience and perceptions of therapeutic working with autistic adolescents using quantitative data collected via an online survey of 103 participants.
Results
The findings suggest significant relationships between therapist experience and confidence to work with autistic adolescents. Therapist confidence was significantly related to therapist competence but the direction of this relationship could not be confirmed. In addition, the results suggested 81% of participants had not received any formal autism training during their qualification and 93% perceived non-directive therapy to be beneficial for autistic adolescents.
Discussion
Collectively this study highlights an urgent need for autism training to be included in courses, which may increase newly qualified therapists' confidence, competence and improve access to mental health services for autistic adolescents. The implications of these findings, as well as limitations and plans for further research, are discussed.
期刊介绍：
Counselling and Psychotherapy Research is an innovative international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to linking research with practice. Pluralist in orientation, the journal recognises the value of qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods strategies of inquiry and aims to promote high-quality, ethical research that informs and develops counselling and psychotherapy practice. CPR is a journal of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, promoting reflexive research strongly linked to practice. The journal has its own website: www.cprjournal.com. The aim of this site is to further develop links between counselling and psychotherapy research and practice by offering accessible information about both the specific contents of each issue of CPR, as well as wider developments in counselling and psychotherapy research. The aims are to ensure that research remains relevant to practice, and for practice to continue to inform research development.
