Abstract
My aim in this chapter is to discuss certain ways in which Conversation Analysis (CA) and Discourse Analysis (DA) can methodologically contribute to psychotherapy research, particularly concerning systemic/discursive therapies. The use of qualitative research methodologies remains limited in psychotherapy research. Furthermore, research of systemic/discursive therapies is in need of methodological advances to address the context-specific, interactional perspective about change, espoused by such models. Following a brief overview of the place of CA and DA in psychotherapy research, I discuss certain notions/methodological tools of CA and Discursive Psychology (DPsy), a trend of DA, which bear potential to address such need. I conclude with limitations and implications of the use of CA and DPsy for the future of psychotherapy research.
