After 30 years of declining practice among psychiatrists,
psychotherapy is being increasingly recognized as a valuable tool
in psychiatric care. While this renewed appreciation offers hope
for the future, a serious challenge remains: There are alarmingly
few psychiatrists equipped as psychotherapy supervisors to help
train the next generation of psychiatrists. Encouraging
psychiatrists to consider stepping into this important role is what
makes Supervising Individual Psychotherapy such a timely and
indispensable resource. With a multipronged approach that combines
the theoretical and the practical, supported by illustrative
clinical vignettes, this guide focuses on four key areas: • The
process of supervisor development, including helpful tools for
building supervisory skills and fostering self-growth, practical
methods for establishing and maintaining a healthy supervisory
relationship, and a collection of vignettes to highlight the
supervisee's perspective. Also addressed are common ethical
questions that arise in the supervisory process. • Specific
techniques used in supervision, including how to establish and
monitor goals for supervision, provide supervision via
internet-mediated videoconferencing, and thoughtfully plan for the
termination of supervision. • Psychotherapy supervision for
specific populations and within various care settings, including
supervision of supportive therapy in hospital units and emergency
departments, cognitive-behavioral therapy, substance use disorder
treatment, and combination treatment of psychotherapy and
pharmacotherapy. Also discussed are the possible effects of the
supervisee's and the supervisor's race, gender identity, and sexual
preferenceorientation on the supervisory process. • Challenges
that may arise in supervision, including an examination of the
effects of marriage, divorce, illness, and death on the supervisory
dyad; the legal aspects of supervision (e.g., confidentiality,
medicolegal liability); and the risks of burnout in both the
supervisor and the supervisee. With a richness of detail organized
in an accessible and easy-to-reference format, this book clearly
covers the skills, capabilities, and qualities needed to provide
effective psychotherapy supervision—and is tailor-made for early-
and mid-career supervisors who are looking to develop and refine
their skills.
