Hi all

I am a Master’s student in Psychotherapy at DBS and I am currently conducting research exploring the use and meaning of dark humour in psychotherapy practice, including how therapists understand its impact on the therapeutic relationship and clinical work.

I am inviting qualified psychotherapists (including pre-accredited and accredited practitioners) to take part in a confidential, one-to-one interview lasting approximately 60 minutes. Interviews will explore therapists’ reflections on the function and clinical implications of humour within psychotherapy practice.

Participation is entirely voluntary, and all data will be anonymised. The study has received ethical approval from my training institution DBS.

If you are interested in taking part, or would like further information before deciding, please contact me at the email address below.

Thank you for considering contributing to this research.


Best Regards,
Jamie Weir
