이 연구의 목적은 쪽방지역에 홀로 사는 남성 노인의 삶의 경험이 갖는 의미와 본질을 밝힘으로서 이들의 경험에 대한 좀 더 풍부한 이해를 하는 것이다. 연구 참여자는 Y 쪽방지역에 거주하는 65세 이상 독거 남성 8명이다. 의도표집방법과 눈덩이 표집 방법을 사용하였으며, 포커스 집단 면담과 개별심층면담을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 자료의 분석은 Giorgi의 4단계에 의거하였다. 연구결과 4개의 구성요소와 16개의 하위구성요소가 도출되었다. 쪽방에 홀로 사는 남성 노인들의 삶의 4가지 구성요소는 <마음 둘 곳 없어 외로운 신세: 아들, 남편, 아비구실 못해 가족을 지우고 살아옴, 몸은 머물지만 정들지 않는 쪽방 살이, 하루짜리 술친구에 머무는 사귐, 외로움을 안고가기>,<인색한 지원에 근근이 살아감: 쪽방처럼 사방이 막힌 인생살이에 우울함, 수급자라 휘둘리고 무시 받아 속상함>,<편견과 차별에 주눅 드는 삶: 아쉬워도 손 벌리지 못함, 가족을 꾸리지 못해 후회되고 냉대 받음, 다가가지 못하는 바깥세상 >,<사람노릇하며 살다가기: 홀로의 삶을 건사하여 독립을 유지하려함, 빚 갚는 마음으로 도움주기, 하릴없이 보내는 나날이 고역이라 일을 하고 싶음, 쪽방 사람들과 다르게 살아가기, 어른도리 하기, 마음을 다스려 현재의 삶을 수용함, 폐가 되지 않을 죽음을 준비하기>로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 쪽방지역에 홀로 사는 남성 노인들의 삶의 경험에 대한 의미를 논의하고 사회복지적 함의와 후속 연구를 위한 제언을 제시하였다.

본 연구는 인턴상담자의 꿈 통찰 과정에 관한 현상학적 연구이다. 연구의 목적은 인턴상담자가 무의식에 대한 통찰을 통해 자신의 경험에 의미를 부여하고 인식하는 과정을 바탕으로 전문상담자로서의 성장을 도모하는 것이다. 이에 자신과 타인, 세계에 대한 기대를 명백하게 나타내는 무의식적 꿈을 인식하는 과정을 갖도록 하며, 이러한 과정을 보다 유연하게 탐색할 수 있도록 하는 꿈통합예술치료를 활용하였다. 연구참여자는 홍보를 통해 지원한 참여 희망자 중 석·박사과정에 재학 중인 3명을 선발하였으며, 자료 수집 및 분석은 연구참여자를 대상으로 심층 인터뷰를 통하여 진행하는 현상학적 Giorgi 연구방법을 채택하였다. 주요 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 인턴상담자들은 꿈통합예술치료를 통해 자신의 무의식적 통찰을 원하는 동기를 가지고 있었고 자신의 무의식 속에서 드러나는 문제들을 꿈, 음악, 미술 매체들을 통해 스스로 통찰할 수 있었다. 둘째, 인턴상담자들은 공통적으로 최근 꿈, 음악, 미술 매체들을 통하여 집중력이 깊어짐과 편안함을 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 꿈통합예술치료의 병행없이 드러났던 방어기제로는 자신을 드러내고 싶지 않아하는 회피적 성향이 공통적으로 나타났으나, 이는 점진적으로 줄어드는 양상을 보였다. 넷째, 인턴상담자들은 앞으로의 성장방향에 대해 스스로를 위한 유연함이 생겼고 자신을 받아들이게 된 기회였으며 전문상담자가 되기 위한 미래방향에 대한 계획을 갖게 되었다고 보고되었다. 따라서, 다양한 매체들을 활용한 후속 연구와 꿈통합프로그램 효과 검증 연구 및 다양한 사례연구가 필요함을 제언한다.
