摘要
In addition to their potential for healing, psychotherapy and counselling offer extraordinary opportunities to observe human experience and behaviour. I suggest practitioners have expertise in and daily access to the phenomena that theories of counselling and psychotherapy seek to explain. Practitioners' clinical experience can be accumulated and shared through theory-building case study research. This article summarizes the logic of theory-building case studies and offers practical suggestions for conducting case study research.
