What is Supervision
Supervision focuses on consolidating the integration of theory and practice and the development of a professional attitude. Supervisees can have an insight regarding their own clinical activity, and they have the opportunity of discovering what they already do well and what they might improve or replace.
Supervision implies respect for the supervisee’s knowledge and experience and emphasizes the way in which the supervisee’s experience is relevant in his/her current professional practice.
Supervision is conducted according to the integrative strategic model of psychotherapy.
Within the integrative psychotherapy training programme psychotherapists are required a minimum of 200 hours of supervision for a clinical practice of at least 300 hours.
Supervision focuses on consolidating the integration of theory and practical abilities and on a professional conduct. Supervisees will discover what they already do well and what they can improve or change: supervision facilitates insight regarding own clinical activity.
The analysis of the therapeutic spectrum contains:
The therapeutic relationship: to what extent can the client feel that his/her relationship with the therapist is an important resource he/she can count on.
The therapist’s involvement: to what extent can the therapist convey to the client the feeling that the client’s well-being is important to the therapist and that the therapist does all he/she can to help the client solve his/her problems.
Resource activation: to what extent can the client experience motivational goals and positive values, abilities and feelings of self-efficacy.
Experiencing difficulties: to what extent is the client emotionally involved in discussing his/her difficulties during the therapeutic session.
The client’s contribution to discussing own difficulties: how receptive is the client to the therapist’s interventions and to what extent does he/she actively participate in the therapeutic process
The stage of therapeutic interventions: to what extent does the therapist focus on the analysis and understanding of the client’s difficulties and the necessary steps for change and progress.
