Abstract

This paper explores the role of live supervision on the professional skills of young systemic psychotherapists. The Ecopsys Institute of systemic psychotherapy training considers the live supervision an essential experience of the training process. Each student joins the therapeutic session with the supervisor supported by the training group following behind the mirror (Loriedo C., 1989) through a closed-circuit audiovisual system, and then draws up a report, a tool for reflection on clinical thinking and acting. To investigate some aspects of the live supervision experience, a sample of 35 reports have been collected and analyzed with the T-Lab qualitative software, describing the emotional features of the first live consultation by students enrolled to different years and training groups. The textual analysis made it possible to point up the theoretical and clinical peculiarities of the Ecopsys Institute supervision model, focused on the emergence of emotional dimensions experienced by the supervisor-trainee dyad during live supervision.
