Abstract: | This paper describes how relational theories of supervision and one aspect of contemporary trauma theory coalesce to offer
a conceptual shift in supervision theory and practices. The paper gives a brief overview of the concept of parallel process
in supervision. Following this, the paper summarizes current literature that questions the universal nature of parallel processes
in supervision. Next, the characteristics of supervision, when framed in relational theories, are offered. Last, the paper
describes how the understanding of trauma theory’s triadic self of victim-victimizer-bystander is a useful construct in understanding
impasses in supervisory relationships. Supervisory vignettes are utilized to illustrate the theoretical constructs. |
