Aim and Objectives
Our research aimed to investigate the experiences of parents of home-schooled children under 16 years of age, in relation to seeking psychotherapeutic services for their children. Our purpose is to inform the counselling profession/practitioners of any issues arising for/affecting this client-group.
Design or methodology structure:
Our interviews conducted on-line with three participants were semi-structured, audio-recorded, and transcribed. The resulting data was thematically analysed underpinned by the principles of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (Smith, 2022).
