El trauma interpersonal corresponde a todo tipo de experiencia traumática causada por otra persona. En Chile existen programas de intervención para apoyar a las víctimas de trauma interpersonal, pero se centran mayoritariamente en la reducción de sintomatología, descuidando otros aspectos importantes. El objetivo fue describir la percepción de profesionales de centros especializados en trauma interpersonal sobre las necesidades y motivaciones de adolescentes al iniciar una intervención reparatoria. Participaron 85 profesionales que atienden adolescentes expuestos al trauma interpersonal. Mediante una encuesta online, manifestaron sus opiniones sobre las necesidades de los adolescentes y los adultos responsables de ellos al iniciar intervenciones reparatorias. Los participantes reconocen la necesidad de reducir sintomatología, pero también señalan que hay necesidades más básicas e igualmente relevantes para la reparación. Destacan entre ellas la necesidad de ser validados y creídos, ser cuidados y respetados, así como de recibir apoyo social. Asimismo, se encuentran motivados por recuperar la confianza en sí mismos y desarrollar sus recursos personales para realizar actividades normales de la etapa de la adolescencia. Estos hallazgos permiten visibilizar factores a considerar en las intervenciones reparatorias.
