Women and Men of Color experience racism in unique and complex ways, just as White Women and Women of Color experience unique forms of sexism (i.e., gendered racism). Traditional analyses of therapists' cultural competence, broadly defined, have yet to examine the effect of intersectionality on the processes and outcomes of psychotherapy. Although previous research suggests that therapists differ in their effectiveness with Racial-Ethnic Minority (REM) clients, no study has examined therapist effects in terms of the intersectionality of clients' race-ethnicity and gender. This study applied an intersectionality framework to test therapist effects due to clients' race-ethnicity and gender. Data for this study consisted of 415 clients treated by 16 therapists. Results indicated that therapists differed in their ability to produce changes in symptom-defined psychological distress as a function of clients' intersecting identities of race-ethnicity and gender. Clinical implications and future research are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).
有色人种女性和男性以独特而复杂的方式经历种族主义，就像白人女性和有色人种女性经历独特形式的性别歧视（即性别种族主义）一样。对治疗师广义文化能力的传统分析尚未检验交叉性对心理治疗过程和结果的影响。尽管先前的研究表明，治疗师在与少数族裔（REM）客户的有效性方面存在差异，但没有研究从客户的种族-族裔和性别交叉性的角度来考察治疗师的效果。本研究应用交叉性框架来检验由于客户的种族-族裔和性别而产生的治疗师效果。本研究的数据来自 16 名治疗师治疗的 415 名客户。结果表明，治疗师在根据客户的种族-族裔和性别交叉身份产生症状定义的心理困扰变化的能力上存在差异。讨论了临床意义和未来的研究。（PsycINFO 数据库记录（c）2019 APA，保留所有权利）。
