Area of Science:

  • Psychoanalytic Training and Supervision
  • Psychotherapy Research
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Supervision is crucial in psychoanalytic training.
  • Key domains include logistics, teaching vs. treatment, evaluation, and affect.
  • Understanding candidate-supervisor dynamics is essential for effective training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate candidate and supervisor perspectives on psychoanalytic supervision at Columbia University.
  • To identify areas of agreement and disagreement in supervision domains.
  • To explore candidate anxiety and perceived stigma related to supervision dynamics.

Main Methods:

  • Anonymous questionnaires administered to candidates and supervisors.
  • Matched-pair analysis of responses.
  • Focus on logistical issues, teach/treat, evaluation, and affective experience.

Main Results:

  • High overall satisfaction reported by both groups.
  • Agreement on 'teach or treat' and supervisor's theoretical orientation.
  • Disagreements on supervisor's role, usefulness, evaluation, and progression.
  • Candidates reported anxiety about case credit and fear of stigma when switching supervisors, contrasting with supervisor perceptions.
  • Supervisory relationship and case credit anxiety were often undiscussed.

Conclusions:

  • While overall satisfaction is high, significant discrepancies exist in perceptions of the supervisory role and process.
  • Candidate anxiety and fear of negative consequences for seeking changes in supervision are prevalent.
  • Open discussion of supervisory dynamics and concerns is needed to improve training effectiveness.
