Supervision in a Changing World

Reflections from Child Psychotherapy

Herausgegeben: Dowling, Deirdre; Kitchener, Julie

Beschreibung

Supervision in a Changing World explores the range of skills and knowledge a child and adolescent psychotherapist brings to the practice of supervision.

Featuring contributions from leading child psychotherapists drawing on their clinical and supervisory experiences, chapters highlight a range of individual supervision approaches. Key issues covered include the history of thinking around supervision; ethical considerations; the interplay between the supervisee and supervisor experience; the complexities of service supervision; working with trauma; and supervising work with children and adolescents with disabilities. The book will also give direct insight into preparing process notes and report writing, research supervision, supervising colleagues in different settings and countries and the training school perspective. Attention is also paid to diversity and power dynamics and the implications of 'remote' supervision (both before and since Covid-19).

One of the few works specifically dedicated to child psychoanalytic psychotherapy supervision, this book aims to meet the needs of child psychotherapist supervisors and those training to become supervisors. It will also be useful for professionals in allied professions, and those who are interested in therapeutic work with children.

Rezensionen

'This book is a breath of fresh air that blows through dusty institutionalised psychoanalytic corridors, cleansing them of sectarian dogma and theoretical driftwood. This collection of essays is independent thinking at its best; it is a real eye (and heart) opener. It might be a cliché, but it is true nevertheless: it needs to be read by every supervisor, and more importantly, by every psychoanalytic training institution.'

'Working therapeutically can at times be daunting for even the most experienced practitioners when we are faced with unthinkable trauma and psychic pain experienced by the children and

families we work with. Yet good supervision makes it possible. Here some of the most respected child psychotherapists of their time with decades of clinical experience, show how supervision can be transformational in guiding practitioners in their work, helping to hold and think about difficulty whilst enabling them to find their own voice in their therapeutic practice. This assembly of carefully curated wisdom is a much needed addition to our reading and thinking.'

Jane O'Rourke, Psychodynamic Child, Adolescent and Family Psychotherapist, and Founder of MINDinMIND

'This very welcome volume from the independent psychoanalytic child and adolescent psychotherapy tradition is long overdue. It covers different aspects of clinical supervision in a variety of settings and brings many of the tensions that supervisors, practitioners and trainees grapple with, in an engaging way. The supervisory superego is one that is inevitably ubiquitous but the papers in this collection address the contradictory task faced in the supervisory process, of transmission of the psychoanalytic tradition at the same time as facilitating the clinician to use their own creativity in their learning and development. It is to be recommended to supervisors and trainees alike.'

Angela Joyce, Fellow of the BPAS; Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst of Adults and Children
