This study explores minoritized mothers' experiences in group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT-G) and relates their experiences to treatment outcomes. Quantitative and qualitative data were gathered from 26 Latinx and Black mothers who participated in IPT-G. Mothers were divided into three groups: (1) not depressed at follow-up, (2) depressed at follow-up, and (3) those with subclinical symptoms throughout the intervention, and similarities and differences across groups were examined. Results showed that mothers not depressed at follow-up reported high levels of emotional safety in IPT-G, facilitating emotional processing. Mothers depressed at follow-up referenced the impact of stigma and had greater difficulty sharing their feelings and also reported lower socioeconomic status and higher levels of trauma. It appears that high levels of environmental stressors and difficulty developing trusting therapeutic relationships were related to experiencing depression at the conclusion of treatment. Alternatively, for many mothers, IPT-G provided within head start was an effective therapeutic option.
本研究探讨了少数族裔母亲在人际团体心理治疗(IPT-G)中的经历,并将她们的经历与治疗结果相关联。从26名参加IPT-G的拉丁裔和黑人母亲那里收集了定量和定性数据。母亲们被分为三组:(1)随访时未抑郁,(2)随访时抑郁,(3)在整个干预过程中具有亚临床症状的母亲,并对各组之间的异同进行了研究。结果表明,随访时未抑郁的母亲报告在IPT-G中有较高的情感安全感,这有助于情绪处理。随访时抑郁的母亲提到了耻辱感的影响,在分享感受方面有更大困难,并且还报告了较低的社会经济地位和较高的创伤水平。看来,高水平的环境压力源以及难以建立信任的治疗关系与治疗结束时出现抑郁有关。另外,对许多母亲来说,在“启智计划”中提供的IPT-G是一种有效的治疗选择。
