Abstract

This case study explored eight clients in outpatient mental health counseling who reported engaging in nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) within the 90 days prior to intake. Information on client self-injury, psychological symptoms, and coping behaviors were collected from clients at intake and termination. At program termination, counselors’ treatment methods, number of sessions, and credentials were collected. To explore changes in NSSI during counseling, descriptive statistics and frequencies were used. Most clients decreased or extinguished self-injury behaviors by termination, while two clients increased. Problem-focused and avoidant coping strategies appeared to differentiate clients who decreased from clients who increased self-injurious behaviors by termination.

与非自杀性自伤增加有关的因素

本案例研究探讨了8名接受门诊心理健康咨询的患者，他们在入院前90天内报告有非自杀性自伤(NSSI)。在入职和离职时收集来访者自我伤害、心理症状和应对行为的信息。在项目结束时，咨询师的治疗方法、会话次数和证书被收集。为了探讨心理咨询过程中自伤的变化，使用了描述性统计和频率。大多数患者通过终止行为减少或消除了自伤行为，有2例患者增加了自伤行为。以问题为中心和回避的应对策略似乎区分了因终止行为而减少和增加自伤行为的客户。
