A plea for more intervision

Journal/Book: Contemp Fam Ther. 1996; 18: 233 Spring St, New York, NY 10013-1578. Human Sci Press Inc. 385-392.

Abstract: The author presents an argument for tolerance, mutual understanding and reconciliation in psychotherapy, instead of a continued emphasis of schools. Psychotherapists' work with clients is proposed as a likely area for mutual understanding, rather than continued emphasis on their particular theories and academic matters. Psychotherapeutic intervision groups in which a small number of therapists voluntarily discuss their cases with peers from various backgrounds have become increasingly common again in recent years.
