The book is very well structured and it could be used by a wide audience, at different levels of experience and expertise.

Dr Biljana van Rijn

Practice-based research is not well understood in the general social science research literature and this text will make a distinct contribution.

Jeannie Wright

The real strength of the book lies in its evident grounding in ongoing and current research practice, frequently quoting from, or giving live examples of, students’ work, such as the personal impact of going through a professional complaint or evaluating a voluntary sector agency providing school-based therapy. Hence the chapter on formulating a research question, often the key struggle for beginning researchers, gives a range of real-life examples which will be valuable to most readers.

Peter Jenkins - Senior Lecturer in Counselling at the University of Manchester

Like Bager-Charleson, I come from a position that holds that all practitioners are knowledge creators, that every counselling session is potentially a source of new and important knowledge. However, as this book recognises, the professions of counselling and psychotherapy have struggled with finding methods of research that generate new ????knowledge to inform a developing profession while honouring its deeply subjective dimensions.

Dr David McCormack

This is one of the best textbooks I have read which explains the reflexive process in research. I have recommended it to my final year qualitative research students.

Dr Jeannette Roddy

this text is invaluable in scaffolding the research activity of students who are attempting to structure critical inquiry into their own practice.

Mr Gerry Myers

Highly appropriate for students learning about and developing approaches to practice-based research.

Mrs denise hardy

A dynamic and stimulating book, which encourages practising therapists and trainees to reflect on and draw upon their own practice. Case studies and activities throughout the book make this an energetic exploration and help to dispel fears and phobias around research! The focus on the self-awareness of the individual practitioner and the stories cited help us to understand the relevance of research to ourselves.

Ms Helene Baker
