Multicultural counselling self-efficacy and stigma of mental illness among counselling students
The current study investigated the relationship between multicultural counselling self-efficacy and the stigma of mental illness, as well as the moderating effects of multicultural training environment on this relationship among 158 master’s students enrolled in counselling and counselling related programmes from Midwestern universities. Results indicated that a statistically significant relationship existed between multicultural counselling self…
The Impact of an Expressive Writing and Storytelling Program on Ex-Offenders
While storytelling or expressive writing has been studied in prisoners, little is known about the impact of these art interventions on ex-offenders. This study aims to evaluate a 6-week expressive writing and storytelling program in a group of nine ex-offenders who attend a peer support group. Quantitative data, including psychological recovery, well-being, hope, social support, and loneliness, was collected at baseline and post-program. Individu…
Art Therapy in Australian Prisons
Art therapy in prisons remains widely under-researched in Australia and beyond and represents a major gap in the literature. Despite evidence that art therapy can be a tool for social change, to date, there are no recorded studies in Australia which have investigated the therapeutic benefits of art in prison populations with measured outcomes. Literary analysis suggests that research tends to be hampered by limitations in methodological approache…
Pathways to second chances
Teaching History Inclusively
The Royal Historical Society’s June 2024 Update to the ‘Race Ethnicity & Equality in UK History: A Report and Resource for Change’ notes some important progress in terms of increased ethnic and racial diversity amongst history students and staff but acknowledges that more work is needed to both sustain and further advance these changes. In this Comment we argue that colleagues and the RHS should prioritise the development of critical pedagogies i…
Group analysis in the decline of democracy
The impact of the decline of democracy on clinical work in analytic groups is explored. With examples of the erosion of democracy in the 21st-century, such as the growth of populism, fundamentalism, and certain understandings of ‘cancel culture’, it is argued that the decline of democracy poses an increased threat to the therapeutic efficacy of analytic groups. It is argued that, while it is essential to retain the distinctively group analytic st…
Exploring First Responders’ Use and Perceptions on Continuous Health and Environmental Monitoring
First responders lose their lives in the line of duty each year, and many of these deaths result from strenuous physical exertion and exposure to harmful environmental agents. Continuous health monitoring may detect diseases and alert the first responder when vital signs are reaching critical levels. However, continuous monitoring must be acceptable to first responders. The purpose of this study was to discover first responders' current use of we…
The Facilitators and Barriers Faced When Transitioning Back into the Community Following a Prison Sentence
This qualitative study explored ex-offender’s community reintegration experiences following a prison sentence. Fourteen ex-offenders from the Offender Alumni Association participated in an in-person in-depth individual interview regarding their current roles, daily routines, living situation, activity participation, and current and future plans. A phenomenological approach using thematic analysis was employed for data collection and interpretatio…
We’ve all got skin in the game
This article describes the thinking and processes involved in initiating the National Diversity Working Group: Power, Privilege and Position (PPP) at the Institute of Group Analysis (IGA) in the UK. It argues that while group analysis is in theory distinguished by a commitment to engaging in power differences and wider socio-political issues, this theory has not hitherto been deeply reflected in practice in the institutional culture of the IGA, r…
Psychotherapy Groups for Traumatized Refugees and Asylum Seekers
Two ways in which the concrete intrudes into the therapeutic space of psychotherapy groups for traumatized refugees and asylum seekers are explored. Concrete intrusions, which are the result of historical traumatic events, are distinguished from those which are the result of the contemporary socio-political context. Groups can help work through the former as an essential part of the therapy and need to find ways of working with the latter. The hi…

Intimate Partner Violence, Technology, and Stalking
This research note describes the use of a broad range of technologies in intimate partner stalking, including cordless and cellular telephones, fax machines, e-mail, Internet-based harassment, global positioning systems, spy ware, video cameras, and online databases. The concept of “stalking with technology” is reviewed, and the need for an expanded definition of cyberstalking is presented. Legal issues and advocacy-centered responses, including …
