Approximately 15-20 Masters dissertations, 5 professional doctorates and 1 PhD.  Areas concern research methods, drug addiction, spiritual emergency and organisational dynamics and therapists' experiences of shame. He has also chaired and examined several doctoral vivas.

Research into the effective provision of psychotherapy via primary care.  As Chair of West London Centre he is currently looking to set up a clinical outcomes study using the resources of that agency.
