I don't really want to get into it much, but I'll just say that I wholeheartedly agree with supervision and consultation. *Proper* supervision doesn't mean changing a therapists' way of being around a client, but it's simply a way of having the therapist reflect more upon their own experiences with the client and the reactions that come up for them in a way to help them find their own conclusions about things, much like many Ts ask of us. Of course, I'm sure there are supervisors who are far too overbearing and force their own views upon those that they supervise.

I think a T should seek consultation at any time during their career. There have been times where I know I would have been relieved to know that my T was seeking consultation. Also, I don't think I could ever work with a T who has never been in therapy, and I (in my very humble opinion) think there shouldn't be a single T in practice who hasn't had to work through their own stuff first. I think it should be mandatory for anybody in clinical practice.

Anyway, there's a lot more I could say on this subject, but I know I'd go off on too many tangents.
