Many counseling and psychotherapy researchers are suspicious of the pronouncements of practitioners because they are not backed up by research. Similarly, practitioners tend to ignore research findings because they think the studies have little relevance to their clinical practice. Bridging the gap between research and theory, this volume provides detailed clinical examples of the practical relevance of research. Research in Counseling and Psychotherapy brings together contributions from leading British and American psychotherapy researchers, who describe their research programs and explore how their findings can substantially inform therapeutic practice. This special volume clearly delineates the immediate relevance of research findings and encourages therapists to reflect on their methods in practice. The contributors also look to a more integrated approach to research and practice in skills training and supervised clinical practice in training courses. A useful resource to both students and professionals, Research in Counseling and Psychotherapy examines cutting-edge ideas in the practical applications of research findings.
