Abstract: | The purpose of this exploratory study was to collect self-report data on willingness to seek personal therapy among therapists in Utah, and to discover if group trends occur among marriage and family therapists, psychologists, and social workers. Self-report background characteristics such as age, gender, marital status, number of children, and practice site, served as independent viriables. Responses from 421 therapists were obtained from a mail survey. Results showed that number of children, years in private practice, number of client contact hours per week, gender, marital status, religion, profession, and practice site were significant in willingness to seek personal therapy. Specific gender data and differences across the professions are presented. |
