Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study explores the effectiveness and meaning of reflecting-team practices in therapeutic environments in Korea.
Method: Six therapists who conducted therapy sessions with reflecting teams participated in this qualitative study.
Results: Three main themes and seven sub-themes were found as the result of the group interview. Participants reported that the reflecting teams were beneficial in providing different perspectives and in enriching clients’ narratives. Additionally, they were helpful in lowering tensions present between therapists and clients. The reflecting teams provided a sense of openness to the therapy and created a supportive environment in which clients felt the sense of reality and partnership with team members.
Conclusions: Reflecting teams can contribute to the culture of therapy, both as an alternative to supervision and as a means of helping both clients and therapists.
