Recruiting Therapists with Lived Experience
I am a PsyD student at the University of La Verne completing my dissertation on therapists who have a personal history of mental health concerns. The purpose of this study is to better understand therapists’ lived experiences in order to inform workplace coping strategies, challenge mental health stigma, and to identify provider strengths that can be leveraged from their personal mental health experiences.
Participation involves a 1-hour Zoom interview and a brief (approximately 10-minute) demographic questionnaire. All information will be kept strictly confidential.
Feedback from participants so far suggests that the interview has been experienced as engaging and reflective.
