Typically, what we understand about therapy and the families we work with comes from the therapist's observations. This inquiry evolved out of the empirical data that indicate the dramatic importance of the client's perceptions to achieving a successful outcome. The research was guided by the understanding that it is vitally important for therapists and therapy researchers to listen to clients and to examine our practices and theoretical approaches in the light of the client's experience of them. This study is a phenomenological inquiry into the client's experience of therapy.

This qualitative study examined how a group of families and their therapists described helpful therapy. The qualitative analysis generated family and therapist perspectives. As a double description, the therapist and family perspectives highlighted conversation, participation, and relationship as three core areas of helpful therapy. These are specified by categories and subcategories that center upon activities of sharing experiences, contributing own knowledge and personal involvement, posing questions, reformulating and giving feedback, and specifying the therapeutic relationship as a relationship of collaboration. Discussion of similarities and differences between the perspectives provides a description of what constitutes good therapy for the families and therapists and points to expansion of the models that have guided the therapists.
