In this methods paper, strategies for conducting interviews on sensitive topics are described, including choosing the appropriate interview approach, creating a safe and comfortable environment, building rapport, utilizing sensitive and open questioning, reflexivity of the researcher, and awareness of the potential therapeutic effect of the interviews on participants. The strategies are illustrated with experiences from research on sensitive topics.<br /> (© The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the European Society of Cardiology.)
