Understanding the psychological health of women of color (WOC) in a racialized and gendered society requires accessing, validating, and processing the lived experiences and emotions that stem from interlocking systems of oppression. Despite the importance of responding to the psychological health needs of this population, the group therapy literature on how to design and facilitate group therapy for women of color remains limited. For this reason, the present research aims to identify group therapy-oriented experiences based on data provided by ten women of color group psychotherapists practicing in the United States. Findings from the consensual qualitative research (Hill, 2012) revealed six domains: (a) group development, (b) personal and professional significance, (c) group facilitation behaviors, (d) perceived healing factors, (e) challenges, and (f) advice. Suggestions for future research and recommendations for women of color groups positioned as a wellspring of empowerment, liberation, and psychological health are also discussed.

对有色人种心理治疗师中的女性的定性研究：集体治疗的源泉。


要了解种族化和性别化社会中有色人种女性 (WOC) 的心理健康，需要了解、验证和处理源于相互关联的压迫系统的生活经历和情感。尽管满足这一人群的心理健康需求很重要，但关于如何为有色人种女性设计和促进团体治疗的团体治疗文献仍然有限。因此，本研究旨在根据十名在美国执业的有色人种心理治疗师女性提供的数据来确定以团体治疗为导向的体验。一致定性研究的结果（Hill，2012）揭示了六个领域：（a）团体发展，（b）个人和职业意义，（c）团体促进行为，（d）感知治愈因素，（e）挑战，以及（ f) 建议。还讨论了未来研究的建议以及对被定位为赋权、解放和心理健康源泉的有色人种女性的建议。 （PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
