Abstract (Swedish)
Studiens syfte var att undersöka psykoterapeuters socialiseringsprocesser, såsom dessa processer upplevdes av psykoterapeuterna 1,5 år efter avslutad utbildning. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med fem psykoterapeuter. Intervjumaterialet analyserades med Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), vilket gav fyra huvudteman: Önskan att förbättra sin nuvarande praktik, Att möta psykoterapeututbildningens janusansikte, Att få en ny gestalt samt Identifikationens och disidentifikationens våndor. Informanterna beskrev syftet med att påbörja psykoterapeututbildningen inte som att bli psykoterapeut eller erövra en psykoterapeutisk yrkesidentitet i sig utan som att bli tryggare i sin yrkesroll, få mer kunskap och få utveckla den...

Informanterna beskrev syftet med att påbörja psykoterapeututbildningen inte som att bli psykoterapeut eller erövra en psykoterapeutisk yrkesidentitet i sig utan som att bli tryggare i sin yrkesroll, få mer kunskap och få utveckla den yrkespraktik de redan hade. Upplevelsen av den psykoterapeutiska socialiseringsprocessen som sådan präglades av en motsägelsefull mångtydighet där processen beskrevs som samtidigt negativ och nedbrytande och positiv och uppbygglig. Informanterna beskrev resultatet av den psykoterapeutiska socialiseringsprocessen som en disidentifikation med identiteten som psykoterapeut och en samtidig identifikation med och affirmation av sin tidigare, primära professionsidentitet. På detta sätt kan informanternas primära professionssocialisering i detta fall sägas ha utgjort en gräns och ett hinder för informanternas sekundära socialiseringsprocess in i den psykoterapeutiska professionen.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the socialization processes of psychotherapists, as those processes were experienced by the psychotherapists themselves 1,5 years after finishing their training. The material was gathered using semi-structured interviews and then analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) which generated four main themes: The wish to improve one's current practice, Encountering the janus-face of psychotherapy training, Attaining a new gestalt, and The agony of identification and disidentification. The informants described the motive for entering psychotherapy training not as becoming a psychotherapist or to gain a professional psychotherapeutic identity as such but rather in order to become more...

The aim of the study was to investigate the socialization processes of psychotherapists, as those processes were experienced by the psychotherapists themselves 1,5 years after finishing their training. The material was gathered using semi-structured interviews and then analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) which generated four main themes: The wish to improve one's current practice, Encountering the janus-face of psychotherapy training, Attaining a new gestalt, and The agony of identification and disidentification. The informants described the motive for entering psychotherapy training not as becoming a psychotherapist or to gain a professional psychotherapeutic identity as such but rather in order to become more secure in their professional role, gain more knowledge and to further develop the professional practice in which they were already engaged. The described experience of the process of professional psychotherapeutic socialization was characterized by a contradictive ambiguity. The process was described as simultaneously negative and disintegrative as well as positive and enhancing. The informants described the result of the process of professional psychotherapeutic socialization as a simultaneous disidentification with the psychotherapist identity and an identification with and affirmation of their prior, primary professional identity. In this way, the informants’ primary professional socialization can be said, in this case, to have acted as a limit and an obstacle to the secondary professional socialization process of the informants as psychotherapists.
