Grappling with Quantitative and Qualitative Approaches to Research Mental health and emotional wellbeing have not enjoyed the priority awarded to physical health. They are usually deprived of funds and qualified staff, and despite one in four of us estimated to experience mental health problems, mental health research has ‘lagged behind many other areas in terms of priority, fund- ing, and therefore discoveries’ (Departmen of Health and Social Care 2017, p. 2). This book approaches research with mental health practitioners in mind. We are particularly aiming at counsellors, psychotherapists and counselling psycholo- gists who–over the last 30 years–we have witnessed often feel marginalised and ‘homeless’ as researchers. Therapists are natural investigators, exploring, tracing and considering underlying meanings–it is what we do.

In our studies into therapists’ relationship to research (Bager-Charleson et al. 2018) one therapist said, for instance, that ‘reading and writing–finding out–it’s like breath- ing for me’, whilst another summed up her sense of enjoyment as follows: » ‘Every day I talk about research [I am] really passionate about the process, the excit- ing process about not knowing anything and then finding out, experiment with ideas and then finding new knowledge...
