Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the perspectives of 12 low income, second generation, Latinas seeking to enter therapy for depression. Qualitative data collected at the time of a diagnostic interview (SCID) using Motivational Interviewing techniques, included an assessment of the woman's motivation to enter therapy and confidence that she could follow through with treatment. Data were analyzed using Constructivist Grounded Theory and revealed six positive and six painful motivators that catalyzed the women towards treatment amidst complications related to "self" and "time." Despite demanding schedules for taking care of their families, finances, current or estranged partners, and work responsibilities, women were determined to get help for their depression.Entities:
