A good clinical supervisor acts as a mentor, providing guidance and support, while encouraging the growth and development of the supervisee. Members of professional psychotherapy associations are required to receive on-going supervision on client practice as a necessary part of maintaining their level of membership, with a current supervisors report becoming a mandatory requirement of accreditation, and re-accreditation.
The supervisory process is a multi layered interpersonal encounter encompassing a range of functions including monitoring, educating, developing and supporting individual practitioners in their role as psychotherapists. Through the supervisory relationship the supervisee is provided with an ongoing opportunity to enhance professional skills and abilities through reflection and exploration on their work with clients.
