Abstract
Psychotherapy is a multi- faceted, complex phenomenon, with unique characteristics that cannot be captured by nomothetic quantitative methods. The current presentation will focus on idiographic methods of exploring psychotherapy effectiveness and therapeutic change. The focus will be on methods that reveal the variations and changes over time for clients who engage in psychological interventions. Qualitative methods allow for that in – depth exploration of the interactions in the therapeutic encounter and the effects on the clients. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) will be presented as the qualitative methodology chosen for these research questions as it allows insight on the exploration and analysis of the meaning clients attribute to their experience of psychological interventions. IPA’s epistemological underpinnings and methods, especially in the context of longitudinal design applications, offer the framework where the researcher has access to intimate experiences of the clients, what they found helpful or hindering in the psychotherapy process as well as any changes they experience in time from their unique perspective. This gives valuable information in the field of development of psychological interventions as well as enriching the tools for idiographic, case-series methods of evaluating the impact of psychological interventions. Examples from the presenter’s research designs will be presented that demonstrate how IPA can be implemented.
