This book is a must-have for any clinician or academician who supervises trainees at any level of training. Because of its workbook format, it is efficient to use as either a practical resource or as a textbook, and it lends itself well to a multi-disciplinary environment. Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Counselors, Social Workers, Teachers, etc. - all will find the workbook equally useful. It has a developmental perspective, and integrates theory, current research, and practice with useful and practical tools for becoming an effective supervisor. In comparison with other available resources on Supervision, I rate this workbook as more thorough in content, and more practically useful than any supervision resource in my library.

I am quite pleased with this book as it is helpful for my new position as clinical supervisor.

I used this workbook for my Counseling Supervision Doctoral course and it was very, very helpful. Step by step notes and exercises that coincide with the textbook. A must have for clinicians!

As a therapist taking a supervisor role for the first time and no formal training in supervising this workbook has been extremely helpful. Going through the chapters and answering the questions has helped me think critically and assess what kind of supervisor I am, want to be, and how to handle different situations and supervisees.

This book is useful for inviduals planning to one day be a supervisor and for those who are currently a supervisor in the field of human services. The sample worksheets, forms and techniques are excellent formats to follow as a new or seasoned supervisior.

I looked very much forward to receive this book, as from deacribtion it seemed to be that practical guide I needed in my work. But all the way through the book it repeats itself, and what is repeated is so selv-evident, that you continue to skip pages to search for some INFORMATION. A lot of words, a lot of schemas, that I cant imagine anybody would waste their time on filling in, as these are also just an endless repetion of basically the same questions.
