Qualified therapists, as well as trainees, are now required to be supervised by an experienced therapist. This book is designed to help not only those who are just starting out as supervisors, but also those who may have been supervising for many years. Supervisors who qualified in the past may have had too narrow a training to prepare them for supervising the kind of newly qualified therapists who are now emerging from highly pressurized courses and who are expected to work in stressful, multi-disciplinary settings. Wyn Bramley proposes an apprenticeship system of supervision that would enable all qualified therapists to get involved with this work. The author stresses the need for internal monitoring in both parties and provides a method for this 'self-supervision'. Particular problems, such as supervisees with difficult personality traits are discussed. There are also chapters on the role of ethics and philosophy in supervision, and on clinical teaching. Throughout the book, real case material provides illustration of the author's proposals, ideas and discussions. In order to fulfil the increasing demand for professional accreditation and registration of new therapists, most existing practitioners will have to become supervisors, a skill which in turn will doubtless become accreditable. This book is therefore a must for therapists with an eye to their professional futures.
