The current study sought to explore the motivations underlying the self-care practices of practicing therapists. While practicing therapists are highly likely to experience professional stress and burnout that could result in impairment to their clinical practice, research indicates that therapists do not always engage in self-care consistently and can face numerous systemic barriers to self-care. Furthermore, it seems that existing studies of self-care fail to account adequately for therapists' motivations when it comes to self-care. There remains a critical need for better understanding of therapists' unique motivations for self-care grounded in their expert perceptions of their self-care practices. The current study sought to address this need by exploring the broad research question: "Why do therapists engage in self-care practices?" The aim of this study was to identify the motivations that underlie therapists' self-care practices. Twelve registered psychotherapists and psychologists currently engaging in clinical work were interviewed about their motivations and self-care practices. Qualitative interviews were conducted to develop a rich understanding of therapists' motivations for engaging in self-care practices. The data were analyzed thematically using a constructivist grounded theory methodology to understand the relationships between self-care motivations, self-care practices, and individual differences in psychotherapists and psychologists. The study findings revealed three key core themes-self-care defined, self-care practices, and self-care motivations. From these core themes, three key ideas were developed in the discussion chapter: therapists engage in self-care practices of all types for psychological, social, physical, spiritual, sense of self-connection, and professional reasons; individual differences in the target population appear to influence self-care motivations, and therapists may have one or numerous reasons for engaging in a particular self-care practice; and psychological, social, spiritual, sense of self-connection, and professional self-care motivations are all linked to numerous self-care practice groups. These themes suggest therapists' motivations for self-care are complex and variable. This study suggests that to increase self-care among therapists, it is important that self-care interventions consider the complexities that influence self-care motivations, which in turn drive self-care practices. A mid-level theory on therapists' self-care is proposed. The broad implications of these findings are also addressed.
