Scott Rutan, PhD, 71 Waban Hill Road, Chestnut Hill, MA 02467. E-mail: scottrutan@scottrutan.com. In his article, Dr. Stone focuses on supervision of group therapy, with specific emphasis on setting clear goals. I applaud Dr. Stone for calling our attention to the need to be thoughtful about teaching and practicing the art of supervision, which is the foundation of our work. It is often overlooked, such that Anne Alonso (1985) termed it the “Quiet Profession.” I will comment on supervision from a somewhat broader perspective, not focusing exclusively on the supervision of group therapy. Ours is an apprenticeship trade. We learn under the watchful eyes of our supervisors. Fundamentally, supervision is the loaning of experience to neophyte therapists. Venturing into the world of emotional healing can be daunting when we begin. There are powerful emotions—eruptions of old countertransferences, the seduction of projective identifications, receiving sexual and angry transferences. These can be bewildering and frightening to new therapists. In group therapy, the swirl of emotions is only intensified. A supervisor should have specific goals in mind, and they differ according to the level of experience of the supervisee. These may or may not match the goals of the neophyte therapist, though, as Moga and Cabaniss (2014) state, they need to be made clear to the supervisee. An initial supervisory goal is to help the supervisee become able to bear strong affect without having to act. Affect, certainly in the psychodynamic tradition, is a main avenue of change, and it is imperative that therapists become comfortable with a wide range of emotions and a wide level of intensity of those emotions. For example, some young therapists are made very anxious when their patients express sexual feelings toward them. A supervisor can helpfully point out that most feelings","PeriodicalId":90511,"journal":{"name":"Group","volume":"96 1","pages":"53 - 54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81308872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have found this practice to manifest significant therapeutic gains within the individual therapy work as well as within the conjoint couple therapy. We also describe our experience with this novel way of working with patients, including some of its indications and potential contraindications, and describe those we have found to be most suitable for benefiting from our model's application.","PeriodicalId":90511,"journal":{"name":"Group","volume":"256 1","pages":"323 - 336"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82944818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
