A practice orientated introduction to the counselling and psychotherapy research evidence. It sets out the factors associated with positive therapeutic outcomes, giving trainees and qualified practitioners a critical awareness of how research findings can inform clinical practice.
How important is the therapeutic relationship? Which therapists are most effective? How should therapy be personalised for individual clients?


Essential Research Findings in Counselling and Psychotherapy answers these questions and many more by introducing contemporary research findings within the therapy field. The book sets out, in a jargon-free way, the evidence for the effectiveness of therapy and the factors associated with positive therapeutic outcomes, providing a comprehensive overview of research findings and their implications for clinical practice.


Included are suggestions for further reading, implications for practice, and questions for discussion, making this an ideal text for use in training and for qualified practitioners wishing to develop and enhance their practice.
