Supervisor Training: Issues and Approaches

This book is a lively and readable resource that will be informative and inspirational for those planning for the future of training for supervisors of counselors, or who create, teach on or apply for supervisor training in the UK. It is designed to be consciously forward looking in a period of rapid development and to highlight differences between providers as well as the approaches and ideas they share. The book should also be of interest to those involved in training supervisors in other contexts and allied professions: social work, medical and nursing professions, coaching, and teaching. It spans a range of theoretical approaches to supervisor training, and authors thus inevitably write from quite different basic assumptions about supervision. They call on a huge range of published resources, many only available in journal articles within their particular modality that have not entered the mainstream.
