Reviews
"""Ayhan's book showed me how to apply trauma-informed thinking beyond clinical settings, to user experience. It revealed new pathways and careers for using my skills. If you're seeking to expand your impact, this book could be your game-changer."" -- Kasia Marzyńska, UKCP registered Psychotherapist & Supervisor, EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner ""This is a brilliantly written and desperately needed book in the field of User Research. Too often user researchers are expected by their organisations to explore difficult and sensitive topics with participants and are left with little to no support should the participants experience trauma as a result. There is also no support for user researchers on how to manage the participants’ and their own distress. This book explores how to become trauma-informed through theory and practice in the form of case vignettes. It is written by a unique person who has expertise in both user research and psychotherapy and should be on the bookshelves of all user researchers, managers and anyone whose job involves being trauma-informed."" -- Femma Ashraf, CEO of Astronomical AI and 5iveCubed, Host of DNA of AI Podcast ""Ever thought about the emotional cost of researching trauma? I know I certainly have. As researchers, we need far more support when conducting research with participants who have experienced trauma. So that we can avoid re-traumatising participants and protect researchers from vicarious trauma and burnout. Ayhan has expertise in both user research and psychotherapy and is well-positioned to offer this much-needed guidance. He advocates for comprehensive training and robust supervision to equip researchers with the tools they need. This book is a must-read for anyone in the field."" -- Ella Botting, User Researcher and Director, Cyber Women Services ""Ayhan’s latest book is a real scholarly gem filled with practical tools enabling researchers to become skilful in conducting research in a safe, ethical, and trauma-sensitive manner."" -- Gabriella Papp, UKCP registered Psychotherapist, Trauma Informed & EMDR"
