Book Synopsis

Supervision in analytical psychology is a topic that until recently has been largely neglected. Vision and Supervision draws on archetypal, classical, and developmental Post-Jungian theory to explore supervision from a variety of different avenues.

Supervision is a critical issue for therapists in many training programmes. Quality of training and of therapeutic treatment is paramount, and increasingly the therapy profession is having to devise ways of assessing and monitoring themselves and each other. In this book, Dale Mathers and his contributors emphasise a model of supervision based on parallel process, symbol formation and classical Jungian analysis rather than developmental psychology or psychoanalytic theory, to show how respect for diversity can innovate the practice of supervision. Divided into three sections, this book covers:

  • the framework of supervision, its boundaries and ethical parameters
  • individuation
  • supervision in differen

    Trade Review

    "In this book a group of experienced practitioners re-vision the core elements of supervision practice. In doing so they inevitably till soil that has been well worked by others, but create through this process interesting newly ploughed furrows. Despite some opaqueness in places in the textual style, the book is sensitively written in a spirit of enquiry and contributes towards the individuation process in supervision." - Edward Martin, Journal of Analytical Psychology, Vol. 54, No. 4, 2009
