Abstract

Evidence-informed practice is highly valued in social work today. There are several forms of evidence-informed practice, including the use of practice-based evidence. To date, the literature on practice-based evidence emanates from an objectivist epistemology. Since the scientific discovery of intersubjectivity, however, there is now strong support for intersubjective evidence that can guide successful treatment. After considering research supporting an intersubjective epistemology, the author discusses the practice implications and provides case examples of how intersubjective evidence can inform decisions regarding the goals and direction of clinical social work.
