Abstract

This chapter introduces the books focus on relational processes in supervision for counselling and psychotherapy. The aim is first to introduce a relational theoretical stance, second to apply that stance to the process of supervision and finally to offer practitioners immediately accessible resources for relational supervision. Within a relational perspective, supervisor and supervisees are viewed as partners who co-construct the supervisory process. Unlike other approaches to supervision where the emphasis is on specific techniques and strategies for supervision, the relational orientation of this volume invites supervisor and supervisee into different understandings of the supervisory interaction.
