Summary:

"Critical Events in Psychotherapy Supervision: An Interpersonal Approach is a guidebook for supervisors of mental health practitioners as well as a text for supervisors in training and the faculty who train them. Our audience includes academic and clinical supervisors in counseling and guidance, counseling psychology, clinical psychology, school psychology, social work, psychiatry, and psychiatric nursing in public and private colleges and universities, agencies, and hospitals. This book will help supervisors understand and handle the most frequently encountered dilemmas in psychotherapy supervision. We selected dilemmas that, in our experience, frequently challenge supervisors regardless of their discipline or the settings in which they work. These include handling supervisees' role conflict and ambiguity, cultural- and gender-related misunderstandings, sexual attraction to clients, countertransference and projective identification, skill difficulties and deficits, and problematic attitudes and behavior. Though this book will be useful in a practical sense, it is also theoretically and empirically informed"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)

Contents:

Toward an events-based understanding of the supervisory process

Remediating skill difficulties and deficits: it's more than just teaching

Heightening multicultural awareness: it's never been about political correctness

Negotiating role conflicts: if it were easy, it wouldn't be called supervision

Working through countertransference: when super-vision is needed

Managing sexual attraction: talking about sex in supervision

Repairing gender-related misunderstandings and missed understandings: it's not just "he said, she said"

Addressing problematic emotions, attitudes and behaviors: counseling in versus counseling out

Final thoughts: the long and short of it.
