THE STUCK-CASE CLINIC AS A GROUP SUPERVISION MODEL

Abstract

This paper describes a conceptual framework and set of procedures which provide a format for advanced trainees in family therapy. Sections of the paper include a description of the theoretical orientation, organization of the clinic, trainee and supervisor roles, and advantages of the model for trainees, families, and clinicians in the community. A clinical illustration highlights the merging of treatment and training. We have found this model to be beneficial and well-accepted in our training program and believe that the ideas set forth can be generalized to other settings.
