Overview
Practitioners working in the helping professions realise the importance of supervision as a space for: reflection; compassionate inquiry; and continuing professional development. This book presents examples of good practice which will help readers to enhance their own supervisory relationships. Robin Shohet brings together supervisors from the fields of consultancy, education, coaching, psychotherapy, youth work and homeopathy, many of whom have been supervising for over 20 years.

Reviews
It is a pleasure to read a book about supervisory practice that invites the reader as this does. -- Healthcare Counselling and Psychotherapy Journal I would highly recommend this book for all supervisors and practice learning assessors. -- The Higher Education Academy Social Policy and Social Work Subject Centre This glorious little book is for anyone who is dubious about the value of supervision. anyone who argued against mandatory supervision at the 2007 CSTA AGM, and all supervisors and supervisees who want more from the supervisory relationship. Right now.I'm off to find a new supervisor. -- The Fulcrum (Journal of the Craniosocial Therapy Association) Overall the book presents a rich tapestry of writers with an eclectic mix of training and experience. In this respect I feel there is something for everyone to dip in and out of. -- Drama Therapy Shohet, a member of the Scottish spiritual community Findhorn, brings together supervisors from the fields of consultancy, education, psychotherapy, youth work, and medicine, many of whom have been supervising for over 29 years. The contributors explain why supervision continues to be just as important as when they first started, and many impart a spiritual perspective when describing how and why they have managed to stay passionate about their chosen career. -- Book News This is a book that unashamedly brings love, spirit and soul into the heart of the supervision process but does so without becoming sanctimonious or precious. We see this through the various heart-felt experiences and stories of the different helping professionals that Robin Shohet has brought together -- from the Foreword by Peter Hawkins, author of Supervision in the Helping Professions
