Self-Supervision synthesizes past and current literature on the theory and practice of self-supervision and provides counselors and human service professionals with a plan for the pursuit of independent professional growth.

Beginning with a historical overview and discussion of the counselor-client relationship, boundary transgressions, the counselor's family-of-origin and unresolved issues, and disclosure styles, the author provides the reader with a foundation for understanding the issues that must be examined when evaluating one's own work. He then outlines the reflective process and describes the actual practice, guiding principles, and strategies for self-supervision. Finally the author presents several proactive measures for counselor self-care that readers will find useful.

Industry Reviews

"The author addresses the topic of self-supervision through a sythesis of past and current literature on its theory and practice."
"...experienced and novice practitioners alike, who must deal with restrictions of time, cost, and convenience, would benefit immensely from an alternative method of professional supervision. As illustrated in Morrissette's book, self-supervision can provide an effective, flexible, and cost-free tool for professional growth and quality assurance in treatment. In Self-Supervision, Morrisette attempts to fill the void in supervision literature by specifically addressing the topic of self-supervision through a synthesis of past and current literature on its theory and practice...His in-depth discussion of the reflective process and the numerous strategies for self-supervision is enhanced by his exploration of the issues that must be examined when evaluating one's own clinical work." -- Family Therapy, Volume 29, Number 2, 2002
