Popis | This qualitative research study on the experience of the trainees of psychotherapy training was conducted according to grounded theory methodology. 11 in-depth interviews were conducted with the future trainees (who had already been admitted into the training) of the Training in psychotherapy integration (TPI). Every interview began with the question: „How is it for you to be before the beginning of this training?“ with the goal to examine the feelings and motivation of the trainees as well as the process of decision making related to entering the training. Results indicate that the forward-looking positive feelings are easily available in the experience of the trainees, while negative emotions like nervousness or uncertainty are often revealed later during the interview. There are two most important influences on decision making, whether to enter or not to enter the TPI: the first is the emerging confidence in the trainers, the second the early conception of the integration from the view of the trainees. The whole process of decision making is framed by the personal history and related conditions in the trainees’ lives (family situation, time, money etc.). The study offers a comprehensive view of the trainee’s experience before entering the training trying to contextualize it with the development of their professional identity. |
