Sociotherapists’ experiences of helping adolescents within the framework of sociotherapy were examined. There were 12 participants involved (three males), who were active sociotherapists from big cities in Poland. They were aged 30–60 years, with at least 4 years’ experience in the profession. We applied a qualitative approach to obtain in-depth, socio-contextual descriptions of the sociotherapists’ experiences. Interviews activated by a narrative stimulus were conducted. Both inductive (inspired by thematic analysis and a categorical-content perspective in narrative analysis) and deductive (based on theory of basic narrative forms) content analytic approaches were used to identify key helping factors. Two general themes revealed different paths of arranging help for adolescents in sociotherapeutic groups: (1) shaping of psychological competencies; (2) intervening in crises, encompassing dramatic actions going beyond process-based group work. Sociotherapy providers should have appropriate specialisms and procedures to implement the necessary interventions, as they go beyond the scope of the group-work aspect of sociotherapy.

塑造社会和心理能力或干预危机？社会治疗师帮助波兰青少年的经验

研究了社会治疗师在社会治疗框架内帮助青少年的经验。有 12 名参与者（三名男性）参与其中，他们是来自波兰大城市的积极社会治疗师。他们的年龄在 30-60 岁之间，至少有 4 年的从业经验。我们应用定性方法来获得对社会治疗师经历的深入的社会背景描述。进行了由叙事刺激激活的访谈。归纳（受主题分析和叙事分析中的分类内容视角的启发）和演绎（基于基本叙事形式理论）内容分析方法都被用来确定关键的帮助因素。两个普遍的主题揭示了为社会治疗群体中的青少年安排帮助的不同途径：（1）心理能力的塑造；(2) 干预危机，包括超出基于过程的小组工作的戏剧性行动。社会治疗提供者应具有适当的专业知识和程序来实施必要的干预措施，因为它们超出了社会治疗小组工作方面的范围。
