Counseling supervision is one of the important elements in the development of counseling and psychotherapy profession. There are two divisions of supervisiontheories, one of them is derived from a particular counseling theory, such as analytical approach to supervision, personal-centered approach to supervision, and Gestalt approach to supervision.
A review of the literature shows rare discussion about Gestalt approach to supervision, not mention its relevant research. This paper aims to introduce the background, theory, techniques, and practice of Gestalt approach to supervision, along with a verbatim record of the supervision process. The analysis of this supervision process covers three phases-from (l)exploring the supervisee’s primary concern in dealing with the group counseling, (2)focusing on the supervisee's inner conflicts between “individual self' and “professional self', to (3)integrating both parts of the supervisee’s selves. Some issues concerning this piece of supervision work are discussed. It ishoped to enhance the understanding of Gestalt approach to supervision as well as to promote future research on the effects of supervision using this approach.
