Report
This terrific book is comprehensive, evidence-based, and practical. Geared toward both supervisors and supervisees, it provides a number of important learning exercises to encourage active reflection. The case studies help the reader transfer what they are learning to real-life situations. I highly recommend this book to trainees, therapists who need to improve their skills in self-reflection, and to supervisors.
