psychoanalytic supervision
Psychoanalytic supervision is a professional process where an experienced therapist guides and supports a less experienced therapist as they develop their skills. It involves reflective discussion about therapy cases, exploring emotional reactions, countertransference, and clinical strategies. The goal is to enhance the supervisee’s understanding of their own reactions, improve their therapeutic techniques, and ensure ethical and effective patient care. This process fosters professional growth, self-awareness, and deeper insight into human behavior, ultimately strengthening the therapist’s ability to help clients effectively within the psychoanalytic framework.
