Peer Supervision of Individual Psychotherapy
Abstract
In spite of his previous training, supervision, and analysis or therapy, a psychotherapist who treats varied and difficult patients risks incurring induced emotional problems or ignoring the development of countertransference. For 13 years a group of psychiatrists has been meeting monthly to discuss members' problems in psychotherapy. It has been found that this kind of continuing peer supervision helps minimize nontherapeutic reactions and provides a unique kind of learning which helps the psychotherapist develop his treatment skills.
