A helpful
supervisor is a good listener, committed to helping you develop your unique voice as you work with patients. Effective
supervision offers an extra set of eyes to help you recognize what the patient is communicating and use your skills
and intuition to be as helpful as possible. In a respectful, collegial setting with an experienced
supervisor you can learn to better understand diagnosis, transference and countertransference and to develop empathy for and
insight into the patient's struggles and growth.
Supervision is an opportunity to develop your
unique identity as a therapist, to build on your strengths and to clarify your professional approach and ethics so
that you grow into the best therapist you can be.
Finally, it's a chance to create a healthy balance
between work and personal life and to gain the skills to reach your professional goals.
Many
experienced practitioners regard the training analysis as a sometimes challenging but invaluable aspect of their work
as a psychoanalytic candidate; it is a hallmark of our profession. Your training analysis is an opportunity
to explore your life experiences, to find meaning and heal from hurt, and to increase your empathy for patients who seek psychotherapy
and psychoanalysis. It also offers a setting where you can find support and perspective as you consider
the challenges of your years of training in light of your personal journey.
