Journal of Counseling Psychology Volume 67, Number 3 (April 2020)Summary: This qualitative study aimed to explore characteristics that sustain therapists' resilience over years of practice. Ten highly resilient therapists were recruited during two phases of sample screening: peer nomination and the use of quantitative scales. Data were collected through in-person interviews and analyzed using grounded theory. Results as characteristics showed that highly resilient therapists are (a) drawn to strong interpersonal relationships, (b) actively engage with self, (c) possess a core values and beliefs framework, and (d) desire to learn and grow. The authors identified a central characteristic that interlinks with each characteristic: have a strong web of vibrant connectedness. Implications for counselor resilience development, training, and supervision are discussed.
