“Having our say” revisited: Wellness of Black women counselors

As a subset of a larger mixed‐methods study of Black counselor wellness, a sequential explanatory research design was used to explore the relationship between the Strong Black Woman (SBW) schema and wellness in Black women counselors. Regression results indicated the SBW schema was a statistically significant predictor of wellness. Grounded in critical Black feminist theory, an interpretative phenomenological analysis of focus group data identified five themes of wellness and coping for Black women counselors.
