In this thought-provoking text Liz Bondi and Judith Fewell invite practitioners to move away
from an approach to research that depends upon distance and objectification and towards a
method centred on practical wisdom developed through intense exploration of the lived
experience of therapeutic relationships. Following a close examination of the flaws of dominant
approaches to research in the field the book provides a richly detailed exploration of a
diverse range of subjective experiences from both practitioners and clients. Written by a
collection of authors with a wealth of experience in practice and academia this insightful and
evocative text will inspire anyone undertaking research in this field - be they students
educators or practitioners.
