Supervision experiences of Indian professionals engaging in narrative therapy training

Clinical supervision is an integral practice for healthcare professionals. However, little is known about supervision within an Indian context. In this study, the authors sought to understand the supervision experiences of 20 participants in narrative training programs in India. Findings derived from a secondary analysis of qualitative data comprising participant interviews revealed three themes: Supervision as a Space for Exploring and Learning; Supervision as a Collaborative Space, and Supervision as a Safe Space. As a collaborative and experiential process, supervision appears to be a highly valued practice in India. Findings reinforce the importance of integrating collaborative supervision among Indian mental health practitioners.
