Abstract

ABSTRACTTrainee perspectives about supervision were examined in the relatively unexplored landscape of psychotherapy training and development in India. Ninety-four trainee therapists drawn from eight centers completed a questionnaire, Development of Psychotherapists–Trainee Background and Process Forms, at the end of training. Results indicated significant relationships between supervision satisfaction and indices of stressful work involvement, experiences in therapy sessions with clients, and perceived professional development and growth among trainees. Qualitative analysis of narratives captured both the perceived benefits and inadequacies in their experience of supervision. The findings are discussed in the context of clinical and cultural realities in training frameworks in India.
