"The increasing professionalisation of counselling and psychotherapy has fuelled a need for students and practitioners to learn how to carry out research. This distinctive new text enables readers to learn these much needed skills through its use of project based/case study approach, allowing the reader to learn through the context of real situations. Each of the main qualitative research methods, including discourse analysis; grounded theory; phenomenology; feminist research and focus groups, are discussed, and attention is also given to such aspects as evidence based practice and conducting research in a mostmodern world. With additional chapters on research processes, a chapter focusing on the students experience of learning about therapeutic research using this approach, and a final chapter exploring the place of therapeutic research in counselling and psychotherapeutic practice, this text will be an invaluable guide for students and practitioners of psychotherapy and counselling to learn how to carry out research."
