Qualitative Research in Counselling and Psychotherapy by John Mcleod

John McLeods book is the only comprehensive guide to the range of qualitative methods used in counselling and psychotherapy. This timely new edition incorporates the last decade of developments in qualitative research methods with eight new chapters, new case studies and enchanced pedagogy throughout.

′The book is an excellent reference book for researchers in counseling and psychotherapy field who want to situate their research practice based on qualitative distinctions that they wish to bring forward on particular phenomenon of counseling and psychotherapy′ -
The Qualitative Report

′I highly recommend this thoughtful scholarly book for readers at all levels who want to learn about qualitative researchJohn McLeod has an excellent grasp on the philosophical underpinnings of qualitative research. And he presents various qualitative methods in a clear, fair, even-handed manner, encouraging readers to see the best in what the approaches have to offer. I really like his stance of not saying that there is one "right" method, but that all have different things to offer.′

′Once again John McLeod has created a wonderful resource for counselling and psychotherapy researchers in this updated book which demonstrates his impressive range and depth of knowledge. This book is of value to beginning and more experienced researchers in the field, as well as to those who teach and supervise research at Masters and Doctoral stages. McLeod produces finely balanced arguments for all research approaches and does not shy away from the political and methodological issues that engage therapy researchers and practitioners at this time.′
