Abstract [sv]

Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka hur kuratorer inom skola och ungdomsmot- tagning arbetar med ungdomar och deras psykiska hälsa samt att utveckla förståelse för vad kuratorerna, utifrån deras möten med ungdomar, tror är orsakerna till psykisk ohälsa bland unga idag. Studien har en kvalitativ forskningsansats, ett induktivt förhållningssätt samt se- mistrukturerade intervjuer som metod. Urvalet bestod av fem intervjupersoner där två av dessa arbetade som kuratorer inom skolor årskurs 7-9 och resterande tre arbetade som kura- torer inom ungdomsmottagningen. Resultatet i studien visar att den psykiska ohälsan bland de ungdomar respondenterna stöter på beror på en kompott av flera faktorer, att relations- skapandet en viktig del i kuratorernas arbete samt att det utåtriktade arbetet är en stor del av det förebyggande arbetet.

Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to look into how counselors in schools and youth guidance centers works with young people and their mental health, and also to develop an understanding of what the counselors, based on their encounters with young people, think are the causes of mental illness among young people today. The study uses a qualitative and inductive appro- ach and semi-structured interviews as a method. The sample consisted of five interviewees where two of whom worked as counselors in schools, grades 7-9, and the remaining three worked as counselors at youth guidance centers. The results of the study shows that the men- tal illness among the young people that the respondents encounter is due to a compote of se- veral factors, that the building of a relationship is an important part of the counselors work, and that the outreaching work is a big part of the preventive work.
