Why is it important?
This work demonstrates the importance of attending reflexively to the researcher's experience, just as therapists attend to their experience in practice. Ways of understanding dream experiences are suggested and linked to concurrent stages of the research process. The paper introduces therapy-based practices which can add particular insights in research, and offers a critical counterbalance to dominant models of research methods in counselling/psychotherapy.
