본 연구는 상담 과정에서 상담자가 경험하는 진정성과 진정성의 방해요인 및 회복요인을 밝히고자 진행되었다. 이를 위해 숙련상담자 10명을 대상으로 심층면접을 실시했고, 합의적 질적 연구법으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 8개의 영역, 16개의 하위영역, 57개의 범주가 도출되었다. 각 영역은 상담자의 ‘진정성 개념’, ‘진정성 경험’, ‘진정성이 미치는 영향’, ‘비진정성 경험’, ‘비진정성이 미치는 영향’, ‘진정성 방해요인’, ‘진정성 회복요인’, ‘진정성 발달요인’이다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 상담자의 진정성은 상담자가 자신의 내면 경험과 일치하게 표현하되 내담자의 유익을 위해 선택적으로 표현하는 것이다. 둘째, 상담자의 진정성 있는 모습과 행동은 경험의 소통, 존중과 이해, 지금-여기에서의 현존이었다. 셋째, 진정성 방해요인은 ‘판단 및 평가하는 마음’이었고, 회복요인으로는 ‘상담 경험에 대한 자각’과 ‘내담자와 경험을 나누고 검토함’이었다. 넷째, 상담자의 진정성은 치료의 동력이 되었으며 신뢰를 형성했다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구의 시사점과 제한점 및 후속 연구의 필요성을 논의했다.
This study explored the construct and features of authenticity as perceived by counselors based on their experiences in counseling sessions. In-depth interviews were conducted with 10 experienced counselors, and analyzed using the consensual qualitative research method. The counselors perceived authenticity to mean being aware of one’s internal experiences and expressing them accordingly for the benefit of the client. counselors felt that authenticity was demonstrated through respecting and understanding the client, and being fully present with the client in sessions. Counselors identified judging clients, which is negative transference, as a hinderance to authenticity. Whereas, being aware of one’s own experiences in counseling sessions, communicating these experiences with clients, and reflecting on one’s experiences after the session, were identified as resilience factors. Finally, counselors expressed that their authenticity fostered authenticity in their clients. Implications, limitations, and recommendations for further research are discussed.
