Os impactos da relação de supervisão nas vidas do supervisor e do supervisando

Abstract

The clinical supervision relationship, as well as the therapeutic relationship, can be seen in three contexts or dimensions that are not excluded: it is the vehicle or the means for the effectiveness of supervision techniques, it is, in some sense, the very tool of supervision, and finally, it is a transformative context for the people involved in it. There is research that examines the objectives and formal functions of supervision, but the transformative context function is a dimension of supervision that has not been explored in the behavioral therapy literature. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the impacts of supervision on the lives of the supervisor and the supervisee. Twenty clinical psychologists participated in this research, of which 10 are supervisors and 10 are supervisees. Based on the canons of constructivist grounded theory, data collection and analysis were simultaneous, inseparable stages, and the composition of the sample was guided by the categories that emerged from the categorization and writing of “memos”. The results suggest that supervision, regardless of the therapeutic model, has broad effects on the supervisory and supervisory professional repertoires and allows them personal gains. In addition, these findings are consistent with an experiential but nonprotocol perspective of therapist training and may be useful for transtheoretical, contextual, and interpersonal models of supervision.
